AR is on record as saying to win games in Europe you need a world class goal kicker - any names spring to mind? If all fit I would go with (injury replacements in brackets):
Paterson
Webster (Houston)
Cairns (Southwell)
Deluca
Robertson
Godman
Blair
Chunk
Ford
Cross
J Hamilton
Gissing
Mutschin
Rennie (MacDonald)
Hogg |

I'm afraid we can't ignore the reality of injuries, so I'd start with..
Paterson
Robertson
De Luca
Houston
Turnbull
Godman
Blair
Jacobsen
Ford
Cross
J.Hamilton
Gissing
Mustchin
McDonald
Hogg
I know De Luca hasn't played at 13 for about a year, but I thought some of our best form came when he was outside centre to Houston. I suspect AR will start with a De Luca/Southwell combination at centre and Houston on the wing, as he likes more physical presence out wide. Understandable if Shane Horgan is starting.
Whoever plays has got be fired up from the start, and really get into the Leinster faces. If we let them get into their groove and play the way they want to, we're stuffed. |
