Garry Ringrose has the chance to send out an immediate reminder to the Lions selectors following his exclusion from Warren Gatland’s squad this week and will start against Connacht at the Sportsground on Saturday.

There was good news for both Andrew Porter and Jack Conan, and the Lions duo will also start in Galway, while Tadhg Furlong is named among a powerful-looking Leinster bench, which will be keen to put the disappointment of last week’s Champions Cup exit behind them.
