TONY McGahan has recalled his grand slam heroes from the Irish international side to bolster the Munster team to take on Leinster in this weekend’s top of the table clash with fellow Irish province in the Magners league battle at Thomond Park. Always pitched as one of the best derby matches in sport, the meeting of the two sides has brought some interesting results in the past.
Table topping Munster have won their last six encounters while Leinster have rallied to win their last seven since Glasgow beat them in October.
Munster are looking to do the double over Leinster this season, the first since 03/04 season while Leinster must look to August 1998 and to a 24-18 score-line to when the province last won in Limerick.
Munster Squad: M Horan, F Pucciareillo,J Flannery,D Fogarty,J Hayes,T Buckley,P O’Connell,D O’Callaghan,M O’Driscoll,A Quinlan,N Ronan, D Ryan, D Wallace, D Leamy, T O’Leary, P Stringer, R O’Gara, P Warwick, J Manning, L Mafi, B Murphy,K Earls, K Lewis, D Howlett, I Dowling, D Hurley.
