Good team, looking forward to seeing Deegan in action, think the backline could benefit from having a 10 inside them that threatens the line and fixes defenders.

Lineout could be a disaster.

Kick-off 3.15pm:
(15-9) Darragh Leader, Cian Kelleher, Bundee Aki, Craig Ronaldson, Rory Scholes, Andrew Deegan, Kieran Marmion,
(1- Denis Buckley, Dave Heffernan, Finlay Bealham, Ultan Dillane, Quinn Roux, Eoghan Masterson, Jarrad Butler, John Muldoon (Capt)

Replacements (16-23): Shane Delahunt, Denis Coulson, Conor Carey, Gavin Thornbury, Eoin McKeon, Caolin Blade, Tom Farrell, Stacey Ili.

On the last 2 seasons, none of them played decent gametime as FB...

Sorry I posted this on the wrong topic, it's fixed

I suspect Leader has the most pro minutes at full back of the three of them.

Yeah I was hesitating, Scholes, Leader and Kelleher all can play both FB and wing.
I'd put Cian where his defensive weaknesses are less exposed.. Don't know if it's wing or FB. And not sure Leader is better for "last gasp tackle". No idea about Scholes, but he wanted to play FB and didn't with Embra in the end..

Possibly Dillane for Roux and we may see Deegan on the bench as I assume Keane will be anxious to have a look at him asap!
