A big week for Leinster. Not just in the context of Saturday’s round of 16 Investec Champions Cup tie against Leicester Tigers, but in the internal battle at out-half where two brothers are integral to the battle for the No.10 jersey.

Ross Byrne has been an able deputy for Johnny Sexton for years now. He has rarely put a foot wrong for the province and the 28-year old seemed to be front of queue when the former Ireland captain hung up his boots after the World Cup.
