The 22-year-old Leinster man met with Irish head-coach Joe Schmidt last weekend amid speculation that Carbery could move to Ulster for one season in order to get regular game time at out-half ahead of the World Cup.

O'Gara feels that his old province should be in for Carbery, especially with doubts over Tyler Bleyendaal's fitness.
