Fitzgerald on the bench for Leinster

Leinster coach Joe Schmidt has named his team for Saturday’s Heineken Cup clash with Saracens at the RDS, kick-off 1.30pm.

Surprisingly, Luke Fitzgerald has been left out of the starting line-up as Schmidt opts for Isa Nacewa at full back with Shane Horgan and Fergus McFadden on the wings - the same back three combination that started the double header against Clermont in December.
