Cullen goes with experience ahead of in-form youth as he names side to face Ospreys

Leo Cullen has chosen to recall some of his most experienced players as his Leinster side prepare for their visit to Ospreys tomorrow night.

Luke Fitzgerald and Sean O'Brien both come in at the expense of Gary Ringrose and Josh Van Der Flier, who both drop out of the squad completely following their involvement in an Ireland mini-camp ahead of the Six Nations.

The young duo have been two of Leinster's star performers over recent weeks, though Cullen obviously feels a break is needed to keep them fresh.

Cullen has also called Isa Nacewa, Luke Mc Grath, Jamie Heaslip and Tadgh Furlong into the starting side as Fergus Mc Fadden(banned), Eoin Reddan, Jordi Murphy and Marty Moore all drop out.

Leinster will be hoping to record their third win in a fortnight following derby wins over Munster and Connacht. Kick-off in Swansea tomorrow night is at 7:45pm.
