AHEAD of their scheduled move to Munster in the Summer, Leinster pair Michael Milne and Lee Barron have already linked up with Ian Costello’s squad at the High Performance Centre in Limerick.
Prop Michael Milne and hooker Lee Barron have arrived early after Jeremy Loughman and Diarmuid Barron sustained injuries against La Rochelle and Bordeaux Begles over the past fortnight.
From Offaly, powerful prop Milne came up through the ranks at Birr RFC and Cistercian College, Roscrea.
He has scored 12 tries in 48 appearances for Leinster since making his debut as an Academy player in 2019.
The 26-year-old represented Emerging Ireland in 2022 and has twice been called up to train with the Ireland senior squad.
A dynamic hooker who has represented Ireland at U20 level, Barron has scored three tries in 23 appearances since making his Leinster debut as an Academy player against the Sharks in 2022.
The 24-year-old has spent the past five years at Leinster having come up through the ranks at Lansdowne RFC and St Michael’s College.
He has scored one try in seven appearances so far this season.
