Fitzgerald primed for Castres clash

Last week’s Magners League tie against the Dragons at the RDS — a game he watched from the stands — was further proof of that.

With the autumn internationals in the rearview mirror and Castres arriving in Dublin tomorrow for the Heineken Cup, Michael Cheika took the opportunity to rest some of the chiefs and promote some of his younger indians.
