Leinster Squad to face Wasps

[silly punt]

The Leinster squad to face Wasps in Saturday's Heineken Cup Pool 2 clash in the RDS (KO: 5.30pm) has been named...

Try scorers from last weekend Rocky Elsom, Felipe Contepomi, Brian O’Driscoll and Shane Horgan are all included in the initial squad.

In all there were three Heineken Cup debutants for Leinster last weekend – Elsom, Devin Toner and CJ van der Linde who all started in the 27-16 victory over Edinburgh.

The team is expected to be named on Friday afternoon.

Meanwhile, over 16,000 tickets have been sold for Saturday’s game and tickets are available from Spar (Donnybrook) as well as online at http://www.leinsterrugby.ie

Supporters are encouraged to get to the ground early and take public transport (nearest DART station is Sandymount) because there are a number of other events around the RDS on Saturday.

There will be a ‘Family Day’ from 4pm inside the ground featuring the Canterbury Roadshow as well as live music in the Supporters Bar.
