Walters and O'Shea look set to be available for selection

Ahead of the squad's departure to Tbilisi for Saturday's World Cup qualifier against Georgia (5pm, live on RTÉ2) defender John O'Shea and forward Jonathan Walters took a full part in Ireland training this morning. 

Both O'Shea (calf) and Walters (ankle) missed out on full squad training sessions yesterday but the veteran duo came through without any reaction to those niggling injuries and should be available for selection for Martin O'Neill. 

Forward David McGoldrick did not travel with the squad due to personal reasons.
