LEINSTER HAVE WELCOMED back internationals Jamie Heaslip, Rob Kearney and Devin Toner into the starting line-up for tomorrow’s meeting with the Scarlets at the RDS.
After Noel Reid’s early ankle injury (which is expected to keep the centre out for just three weeks) Ian Madigan will start the champions’ first home fixture of the Pro12 season in the number 12 jersey.
There are five changes in all; Kearney’s return edging Zane Kirchner to the wing and Fergus McFadden out of the squad, so too Sean O’Brien after his cameo at number eight, Toner replaces Ben Marshall and Jack McGrath trades a space on the bench with Cian Healy.
