With nine players on international duty and several others out injured, Leinster's team to play Borders in the Celtic League at Friday night has an experimental look to it. Leinster have already suffered two defeats in the competition so far so boss Matt Williams will be hoping his young team will come through against Borders. The team will be captained by hooker Peter Smyth.
Leinster: 15. Christian Warner, 14. John McWeeney, 13. Kieran Lewis, 12. Shane Horgan, 11. Gordon D'Arcy, 10. Andy Dunne, 9. Brian O'Meara, 1. Emmett Byrne, 2. Peter Smyth (Captain), 3. Niall Treston, 4. Ben Gissing, 5. Aidan Kearney, 6. Des Dillon, 8. Victor Costello, 7. Liam Toland.
