Contrary to Munster fans thoughts, the fantastic recent results of Leinster in cauldrons such as Exeter and Thomond Park ( in Thomond lacking a lot of experienced regulars), would point to Leinster's strength. Leinster are an excellent squad, but hopeful we might get a result- strong Connacht team named.

10 players from St Michaels school involved on monday

Getting upbeat about our chances after seeing the teams. Leinster's less experienced forwards vs our more settled pack. The backlines have more Connacht first choice players than Leinster. Can't wait.
