Leinster unchanged for Agen match

Leinster coach Michael Cheika will have an unchanged squad when his side meets Agen in the Pool 2 Heineken Cup clash at Stade Armandie on Saturday.

The main point of concern is the front row, where Reggie Corrigan could come in for new signing Stan Wright. That would mean Ronnie McCormack moving across to the tight-head side.

Brian Blaney and Brian O'Driscoll have both recovered from illness. It appears that Shane Horgan has been struck with the same sickness this week, however.

Meanwhile, tickets for ‘The Last Stand’ against Ulster in Lansdowne Road on New Years Eve have topped the 30,000 mark, meaning there is guaranteed to be a Magners League record attendance for the last game ever to be played there.

There are limited Stand tickets available and terrace tickets are available for purchase from www.leinsterrugby.ie and from Spar (Donnybrook), Leinster Rugby Store (Donnybrook, Elvery’s (Dawson Street & Suffolk Street) as well as all Ticketmaster outlets.
