Hickie back for St Mary's
Former Leicester Tigers hooker Gavin Hickie has returned to St Mary's College ahead of their season opener at home to Dublin rivals Clontarf at Templeville Road.
St Mary's new half-backs Joe Burns and Gavin Dunne are now finding their feet.
Former Suttonians loose-head Ciaran Kavanagh will start for the first time for ‘Tarf in the AIL after making a good impression in pre-season.
The same fate also falls to Ireland U-20 number eight Paddy Mallon.
