Leinster head coach Leo Cullen admitted developing cohesion will be the biggest challenge for his side as he welcomes a plethora of internationals back into his matchday selection for Friday night’s top-of-the-table United Rugby Championship clash with The Bulls at the RDS (kick-off 7.35pm).

For their bonus point triumph away to Zebre last Saturday, Ciaran Frawley was the only player from Ireland’s Six Nations squad to see game time for the eastern province.
