O'Riordan to make League debut for Leinster

Reggie Corrigan will join Shane Byrne and Victor Costello in a select band of three players to win 100 caps for Leinster when he runs out against Cardiff Blues at The RDS on Saturday.

"One of my major ambitions for this year was to reach the 100 cap mark with Leinster," said Corrigan.

"I've enjoyed many high moments in my career and this is a fantastic honour. We're all looking forward to playing in the RDS and hopefully it will give us a chance to establish a fresh start.

David Blaney gets the chance to help rectify lineout problems and scrum-half Brian O'Riordan will make his first start of the League.
