These are the Leinster Youth Results. Navan, Wexford and Mullingar feature a good bit but generally a good spread. I haven't looked at the School/Youth results yet which will explain the lack of metro clubs in this list.

The 19s has been picked, nothing on the leinster website but if you check club and school websites or club facebook pages etc you will find a lot of the names of lads who will be in the squad
Greystones website has 6 names of lads in the squad http://www.greystonesrfc.ie/News/greystones-players-selected-for-leinsters-u19-squad.html

Hard to find much info elsewhere. Surprising that the Leinster website has not put up the squad as Munster have done.

Not that hard, it would take a small bit of time but not that much effort to go through various club/school websites/facebook pages

Very surprised Gareth Molloy didn't make it, he's a class act. Would have had him nailed on. Who are the scrum halves?

Both scrum halves who made it are very quick around the break down both played well against Leinster but Gareth is not as quick around the breakdown and his pass doesn't flow as well but he is a great rugby player just not a nine

At half time in the Celtic League Final yesterday Sean O'Brien presented the Shane Horgan Cup to the Midlands Squad.
Two things struct me about this.
Firstly, Fair play to Leinster in giving the Youth development lads such a high profile occasion and
Secondly, it was hard to believe the size of these guys. The two lads SOB presented the cup to didnt look out of place standing beside him. and these are 15/16 yearold boys.

Thats great to hear. Great to give youths rugby the profile but there wouldnt be many if any 15 year olds in that squad. all would be 16 or 17.

The Shane Horgan Cup is played at U16. All of the boys in this seasons cup were born in 1996. So none are 17 and the majority are still only 15.

Going by past years Leinster dont really announce their u18/19/20 squads on the website until mid/late august or as late as a week or two before the interpro games.
If you check the various club/school websites you may see a note saying which kids are involved with interpro sides but you wont see a full list until it goes up on leinsterrugby.ie

Going by the munster fixtures i posted in an earlier post which are below
Sept 23 – v Connacht (H)
Sept 30 – v Ulster (A)
Oct 6 - v Leinster (H)

On sept 23rd Leinster will play Ulster, on sept 30th Leinster play Connacht and on oct 6th Connacht play Ulster.
Munster Youths are training in rockwell with the Munster u18 schools and u19 sides so i imagine the 2 u18 sides will play each other quite regularly.
Munster have called up several players to their squad after several kids orig named in the squad moved to A schools in the time since the squad was named.
AFAIK Munster are will play Leinster in the next few weeks

I would guess one will be in Limerick and one will be in Cork. If a game is in Cork it will be in Musgrave or CIT and in Limerick a game is most likely to be on in Dooradoyle or Rosbrien
