Unlucky Wallace will start for Munster

David Wallace, perhaps the most unlucky man to lose out in the scramble for World Cup places, will be on the openside for Munster in their Celtic League confrontation with Llanelli at Thomond Park tomorrow night.

Anthony Foley is away, so Denis Leamy, comes in on the blindside and Jim Williams moves to number eight. Killian Keane will stay on at outhalf for the injured Jason Holland and both Jason Jones-Hughes and Trevor Hogan, replacements last week, will make their full debuts.

MUNSTER (v Llanelli): J Staunton, M Lawlor, M Mullins, J Jones-Hughes, S Payne, K Keane, E Reddan, S Kerr, J Flannery, M Cahill, T Hogan, E Halvey, D Leamy, D Wallace, J Williams (capt).
