Kidney goes for experience over youth

Munster coach Declan Kidney has decided to go with the experience of Mick O'Driscoll ahead of the youth of Donncha Ryan in his starting fifteen for the Heineken Cup quarter-final against Llanelli Scarlets on Friday night.

Lifeimi Mafi has been preferred to Barry Murphy in the centre and Jerry Flannery has edged out Frank Sheahan at hooker.
