Leinster have made two changes to their starting XV for Saturday’s Vodacom URC final in Dublin, with Bok lock RG Snyman set to make an impact off the bench.
Ireland international Garry Ringrose returns to the midfield to partner All Black Jordie Barrett, with Jamie Osborne dropping down to the substitutes, while Josh van der Flier replaces Scott Penny at openside flank.
Ronan Kelleher, Jack Boyle and Rabah Slimani provide the front-row reinforcements with Snyman and Max Deegan also providing their muscle from the bench.
The departing Ross Byrne is set to make his 186th and final appearance for Leinster as a replacement.
