Not for the first time, Carlow’s Ed Byrne is set to captain Leinster this weekend.
The Blues host Munster at the Aviva Stadium on Saturday in the final regular-season game of the URC.
Something of a dead-rubber for Leinster, Munster will be looking for a win to boost their table seeding and secure a home quarter-final clash.
Jordan Larmour and Ryan Baird have recovered from injury and will start, with Cormac Foley also set for a first home start, his fifth appearance overall for Leinster. Ed Byrne, as captain, is joined in the front row by Seán Cronin and Thomas Clarkson.
The uncapped Ben Murphy is named on the bench, the scrum-half ready for a debut on home soil if called upon.
