Heaslip confident Leinster will bounce back against Edinburgh

JAMIE HEASLIP has promised that motivation will not be an issue for Leinster as they seek to put their Heineken Cup disappointment behind them and clinch a second Magners League title in three years.

Michael Cheika’s side will secure a home tie in the league semi-finals if they defeat Edinburgh in the RDS this Sunday and the Ireland number eight is adamant that last week’s defeat in France has been put to bed.

“April was a big month for us on both fronts and, now that we’re out of Europe, we have a massive period ahead with Edinburgh coming to the RDS on Sunday evening,’’ he said.
