Horgan and Le Roux named in Leinster squad

The Leinster squad to face the Leicester Tigers in Saturday's Heineken Cup Pool 6 clash at Welford Road (KO: 3.30pm) has been named.

Shane Horgan and Ollie le Roux are both named in the expanded panel as they bid to overcome injury for the crunch clash against last year's Heineken Cup runners-up.

There are also places for the likes of Felipe Contepomi who kicked ten points in the weekend win and Luke Fitzgerald who bagged a brace of tries.

Captain Brian O'Driscoll is also included.

Ireland duo Gordon D'Arcy and Malcolm O'Kelly, who both joined Victor Costello on 136 Leinster appearances in last Saturday's 20-13 victory over Toulouse, lie only three appearances behind Reggie Corrigan's record for the province.

Leinster squad:

Forwards (15): Cian Healy, Ollie le Roux, Ronan McCormack, Brian Blaney, Bernard Jackman, Stephen Knoop, Stan Wright, Leo Cullen, Trevor Hogan, Cameron Jowitt, Malcolm O'Kelly, Stephen Keogh, Keith Gleeson, Shane Jennings, Jamie Heaslip

Backs (12): Guy Easterby, Chris Keane, Felipe Contepomi, Jonathan Sexton, Luke Fitzgerald, Rob Kearney, Gordon D'Arcy, Christian Warner, Brian O'Driscoll, Gary Brown, Shane Horgan, Girvan Dempsey
