Blackrock to field weakened squad

League leaders Clontarf will entertain fourth placed Blackrock College in 'the match of the day' in Division One of the All Ireland League at Castle Avenue tomorrow.

They will be led by the centre partnership between Conor Mahony and James Downey and the driving presence of a pack fronted by Bernard Jackman, the joint highest try scorer.

Blackrock College will be missing Brian Carey and Johnny Davis.

St Mary's College will have openside Shane Jennings, centre Kieran Lewis, out-half Barry Lynn and flanker Ciaran Potts back in the frame for the visit of Terenure College, who will have Eamon Fitzpatrick in the second row and Mark O'Kelly back at inside centre.

Lansdowne's left wing Fiachra Baynes is back from a broken wrist, hooker Ronan Fallon is back from a shorter term ailment and openside Niall Ronan will make his League debut against UL-Bohemian.

Carlow coach Dan Van Zyl has decided to recall number eight talisman Andrew Melville for the trip to Harlequins, who will Ulster contracted Neil and Rory Best and Roger Wilson in their ranks.

Garryowen have gone for Dermot O'Sullivan at full back and Dermot McInerney will take over from Killian Keane at number ten away to Dungannon.

Galwegians will have twelve guys under 22, including the Muldoon brothers Johnny and Ivan, for the Connachyt derby with Buccaneers at Crowley Park.

Buccs full back Niall O'Hara is struggling to make it.
