Strong Irish presence for Leicester team

Full-back Geordan Murphy, openside Shane Jennings and scrum-half Frank Murphy will provide a distinctly Irish flavour to the Leicester Tigers side to play London Wasps in the Heineken Cup final at Twickenham on Sunday.

Another Irishman, Ian Humphreys, normally a fly-half, will provide scrum-half cover on the bench with his fellow Irishman Frank Murphy continuing in the number nine shirt after Harry Ellis suffered a season-ending knee injury two weeks ago.
