The Connacht Eagles management have named their team
for tomorrow’s crucial final Celtic Cup league game against Leinster A at The
Sportsground (k/o 1pm).
The Eagles go into the game knowing that a win
coupled with an Ulster A loss at home to Munster A would see them qualify for
the final against Leinster.
The front row is unchanged with hooker Dylan
Tierney-Martin starting alongside props Matthew Burke and Conor Kenny. There’s
one change in the second row where Cillian Gallagher comes in for Joe Maksymiw
to partner Cormac Daly, while in the back row flanker Joshua Dunne is named in
place of Lucas Culliton. He’ll be joined by Niall Murray and number 8 Mikey
Wilson who complete the pack.
There’s a change at out-half where there’s a start
for Conor Dean while Luke Carty moves to number 12 to partner captain Seán
O’Brien. A back three of wingers Peter Sullivan and Diarmuid Kilgannen and
full-back Conor Hayes completes the side.
The Eagles have won 5 of their 6 games so far in
what’s been a very impressive campaign, so all Connacht fans are being
encouraged to come along and support them for their final league game.
Tickets
cost €10 for adults, €5 for juniors and all 2019/20 season ticket holders go
free.
