CIAN KELLEHER AND Rory OโLoughlin will each make their first starts of the season for Leinster as Leo Cullenโs men travel to Glasgow to face the Warriors on Monday (8:15pm, eir Sport), while 2019 Ireland U20 captain David Hawkshaw is once more in line to make his debut off the bench.
The former Dublin minor hurler was originally named as a replacement for Leinsterโs battering of Zebre last weekend but was withdrawn from Cullenโs matchday squad after picking up a minor adductor strain during the captainโs run.
Centre Hawkshaw will hope to finally see some first-team involvement at Scotstoun, while alongside OโLoughlin in the starting midfield berths, Tommy OโBrien moves to 12 from the right wing where he scored two tries against last weekendโs Italian visitors.
Another brace-scoring hero, Dan Sheehan, is on the bench this weekend with James Tracy coming in to start at hooker.
Leinster are otherwise unchanged, with the same second-row, back-row and half-back pairings as started against Zebre. Dan Leavy is once again on the bench for tomorrowโs visit to Scotland.
