Byrne hoping for a late, late show with Leinster

What a difference a year makes. Twelve months ago, Bryan Byrne was playing in the B&I Cup final at Ealing’s Trailfinders Sports Ground in front of 1,386 fans.

On the very same day, in the north of Spain, his Leinster team-mates were winning the Champions Cup final in Athletic Bilbao’s San Mames Stadium, with a rather more impressive 52,282 attendance.
