Fit-again Carbery on bench for Leinster clash with Montpelier tomorrow

Athy's Joey Carbery is fit enough to sit on the bench in tomorrow's Leinster away game with Montpellier.

There are half a dozen changes to the starting team from last weekend’s comprehensive victory over Glasgow Warriors.

Carbery is selected on the bench and is back for his first Leinster involvement since starting at full back against Glasgow Warriors in Round 2 of the competition.

The 22-year-old, in only his second start for Ireland, sustained a fractured left forearm after being tackled against Fiji in the Autumn international at the Aviva stadium in November.

Johnny Sexton is spared the trip to France, though Cullen insists the out-half is fully fit, while Luke McGrath and Jack McGrath move to the replacements bench as Leinster seek to make it six wins from six in the competition.

Rob Kearney returns the team at full back for the clash at the Altrad Stadium (kick-off 1pm), with Jordan Larmour moving from the 15 jersey to the right wing, with James Lowe again selected on the left wing.
