The Leinster squad to face Leicester Tigers in Saturday's Heineken Cup Pool 6 clash at the RDS has been named (Kick Off: 1.30pm).
Felipe Contepomi returns to the squad and could be in line for his first appearance of the season when the squad is trimmed down to a starting 22 on Friday lunchtime.
Contepomi returned to training earlier in the week and has been named in the squad alongside the likes of skipper Brian O'Driscoll as well as fellow Ireland internationals Gordon D'Arcy, Girvan Dempsey, Luke Fitzgerald, Keith Gleeson, Jamie Heaslip, Shane Horgan, Bernard Jackman, Rob Kearney and Malcolm O'Kelly.
The extended squad also includes two more Ireland internationals - former Tigers duo Leo Cullen and Shane Jennings. Chris Whitaker and Ollie le Roux - who have both been in fine recent form - are also included alongside prop Stephen Knoop who missed last weekend's game through injury.
Looking ahead Jennings commented "Ever since the Heineken Cup draw was made over the summer and we knew that we had drawn Leicester, I have been really looking forward to this game"
