Kidney puts faith in experimental squad
They play Coventry tonight (7.30pm) and Worcester on Saturday (2pm) as they prepare for the first Celtic League match on Sunday week against Cardiff Blues in Donnybrook.
Ex-Connacht centre Shane Moore is one of six Clontarf players named in the squad alongside John Duffy, David McAllister, David Hewitt, Aidan Kearney and Ben Gissing. There are also places for Blackrock College backrow Tom O’Donoghue and his clubmate, Conor Kilroy, who sealed victory in last week’s 16-13 defeat of Worcester with a last gasp penalty.
