Enter the Dragons: Leinster looking for improvement

THE Newport-Gwent Dragons take on Leinster in the Celtic League in Donnybrook tonight only four days after a gruelling six-point defeat to Welsh rivals the Ospreys at the New Stadium.

If Paul Turner’s team are feeling the effects of that particularly punishing engagement then Leinster coach Michael Cheika doesn’t expect to see any signs of that come kick-off.

“It was a very physical encounter. One thing’s for sure, whenever you play the Welsh teams it’s going to be a physical game,” said the former Randwick coach.
