Leinster have announced an extended squad to face the Newport Gwent Dragons in Saturday’s Magners League clash at the RDS (kick-off 6pm).
Shane Horgan returns to the panel and is included in a 27-man panel for the province’s final home game of the season, which could see them lift the Magners League title.
Leo Cullen misses the game through injury, but the squad has a strong look to it for the penultimate clash of the campaign.
Bernard Jackman is included in the squad fresh from being named the Bank of Ireland Leinster Player of the Year.
In all, Leinster coach Michael Cheika has 11 Ireland internationals at his disposal in the squad.
