Van der Linde ruled out of Leinster squad

CJ van der Linde has been ruled out of the Leinster squad to face Ulster in Saturday's Magners League clash at the RDS (KO: 5.30pm).

However, Leinster can call on Gordon D'Arcy, Shane Horgan, Rob Kearney and Brian O'Driscoll - all try-scorers in the 39-7 victory over the Scarlets last weekend - for the visit of Ulster on St Stephen's Day.
