Leinster bring back big guns

Leo Cullen is one of 15 Ireland internationals named in the provisional panel which also includes the likes of Shane Horgan who has scored 26 tries in 77 Heineken Cup appearances for the province. Gordon D'Arcy, who has touched down on four occasions so far in this year's competition, is joined by Brian O'Driscoll's whose 28 career tries in Europe leaves him in third place in the overall standing.

Scotland's Nathan Hines and South Africa prop CJ van der Linde join Jonathan Sexton - who has kicked 60 points so far this year - in the extended squad and the team is expected to be named on Friday lunchtime.

Upwards of 4,000 Leinster supporters are expected to make the trip to the south of France this weekend. To facilitate those travelling, the Official Leinster Supporters Club, in association with Bank of Ireland, have published an away guide which can be downloaded on www.leinsterrugby.ie
