    With all the hulabaloo of the Lions and Heineken Cup going on, it'd be easy to forget about the nitty gritty of the Magners League! Leinsters defence is all but over now following a disapointing performance and result in Edinburgh - but needless to say, Leinsters next visit to Edinburgh will involve the small matter of lifting the Heineken Cup trophy, so we wont be too disapointed!! :p

    Leinster name a strong squad, all the big names come back in what will surely be treated as a training match now before the massive task the following weekend.

    The only notable absence is that of CJ Van Der Linde, although one would hope this is precationary ahead of next weeks game.

    Leinster Squad:
    FORWARDS (14): Cian Healy, Ronan McCormack, John Fogarty, Bernard Jackman, Ollie le Roux, Stan Wright, Leo Cullen, Trevor Hogan, Devin Toner, Malcolm O'Kelly, Rocky Elsom, Shane Jennings, Sean O'Brien, Jamie Heaslip

    BACKS (13): Chris Keane, Paul O'Donohoe, Chris Whitaker, Felipe Contepomi, Jonathan Sexton, Luke Fitzgerald, Gordon D'Arcy, Fergus McFadden, Brian O'Driscoll, Shane Horgan, Isa Nacewa, Girvan Dempsey, Rob Kearney

    With only really pride left to play for, I'd still like to see a strong team and a strong performance. It's our second last game in the RDS this season and it would be nice to lift moral and get the crowd going for next week.

    So do we think he'll play his strongest hand? Wait....I mean what he thinks is his strongest hand?

    Hope Sexton starts and POD gets some gametime, not that I expect either to happen. Damn shame CJ is out, can't see him starting against Munster now. He's been out too long to just parachute him in. Might bench, but I'd say that's the best we could hope for. Hopefully Wright keeps up his form from the Quins game. Our scrum would cause Munster all kinds of trouble with Healy and CJ though, ah well.

    EOS Cheika will pick the exact same side that faced Quins I reckon, as long as everyone is fit.
