Leinster Team Named For PRO14 Semi-Final Clash With Munster

Can Leinster do the double?

Head coach Leo Cullen has named his Leinster team for this weekend’s crucial PRO14 semi-final showdown with provincial rivals Munster at the RDS Arena in Dublin.

As expected Johnny Sexton misses out with a groin injury picked up in last Saturday’s Champions Cup win. Ross Byrne takes his place, with Joey Carbery at fullback.

Isa Nacewa shifts to the centre to replace Henshaw, with Garry Ringrose outside him. James Lowe comes back onto the left wing with Jordan Larmour on the other.

There’s no Dan Leavy, with Rhys Ruddock coming back into the side at 6 and Jordi Murphy shifting to 7. Jack Conan starts at 8 to make up the back-row.
