Warner to start for Leinster

Versatile three-quarter Christian Warner will start as outside centre in place of the injured Kieran Lewis (bruised knee) as Leinster prepare for their third Celtic League outing against Edinburgh at Donnybrook on Friday evening.

Leo Cullen returns to captain the side at second row and left wing Brendan Burke, scrumhalf Brian O'Riordan and openside Shane Jennings are all retained.
