Leinster have welcomed five Ireland squad players back into their ranks for Friday’s URC trip to Ospreys with Ciaran Frawley, the forgotten man in the Ireland out-half debate, starting at ten for the province for the first time since mid-October.

Injuries and the emergence of Sam Prendergast have limited Frawley’s time on the field and, specifically, as the pivot. His last appearance for Ireland was off the bench against Fiji in the November Test window as Jack Crowley continues to back up Prendergast.
