Cullen boost for champions Leinster

THE timing of Leo Cullen’s recovery from injury could hardly be more appropriate as Leinster go in search of further Magners League glory at the RDS this weekend.

Cullen boost for champions Leinster

Leinster take on ever-improving Ulster on Sunday (5.30pm) when team captain Cullen will be joined in a squad of 27 players by South Africa’s World Cup winning prop forward CJ van der Linde and Ireland’s Grand Slam hero Gordon D’Arcy.

Leinster coach Michael Cheika expects D’Arcy to have a spring in his step, pointing out that Brian O’Driscoll’s midfield partner had no right to a rest having played so little top class rugby this year.
