Look who’s back.
Leinster Rugby Head Coach Leo Cullen has announced his side to take on Benetton Treviso tomorrow in the Guinness PRO14.
Cullen is able to welcome back a number of players from injury in addition to a few players from international duty, while he also hands out a debut to new arrival James Lowe.
Lowe arrived from Super Rugby side the Chiefs who reached the semi-finals of the southern hemisphere competition this year. Lowe played in 16 Super Rugby matches this season, scoring 11 tries.
In the centre Noel Reid is again selected at inside centre while Garry Ringrose returns from shoulder injury to make his first appearance of the campaign.
In the pack Jack McGrath and James Tracy come back in for their first involvement since the Guinness Series to join Andrew Porter in the front row.
