Leinster and Munster have rung the changes ahead of Saturday's crunch inter-provincial clash at the Aviva Stadium. Leo Cullen has opted for nine changes from the team that narrowly lost out to Connacht last weekend.
Dave Kearney is back to full fitness and he comes in on the way along with Isa Nacewa, a move which sees Zane Kirchner return to 15. Ben Te'o and Garry Ringrose continue in the centre but Johnny Sexton returns to Pro 12 action for the first time since January to take up his position at out-half.
The Irish contingent return to the pack also with Jack McGrath, Devin Toner and Jamie Heaslip among those coming in from the start.
For Munster, Anthony Foley has been able to call on the returning CJ Stander for the first time since his Six Nations exploits. Meanwhile Conor Murray, Francis Saili and Andrew Conway have returned to bulk up Munster's options in the backs.
