The Leinster Rugby Women’s team, proudly sponsored by Bank of Ireland, to take on Ulster Rugby tomorrow in the Vodafone Women’s Interprovincial Championship, in Queens University, has been named by Head Coach Tania Rosser. Kick off is at 5.30pm and will be shown live on BBC NI.
There are two changes to the pack who took on Munster last weekend, with Emma Hooban starting at hooker and Elaine Anthony coming in to the second row.
Aoife Moore and Christy Haney pack down either side of Hooban in the front row. Anthony joins Aoife McDermott in the second row, while Niamh O’Dowd, Molly Boyne and Hannah O’Connor complete the pack.
There are no changes to the back line, Molly Scuffil-McCabe and Dannah O’Brien continue their partnership at half-back. Jenny Murphy and Aoife Dalton once again join up in the centre and it’s a back three of Anna Doyle, Elise O’Byrne-White and Ella Roberts.
Prop Christy Haney and number 8 Hannah O’Connor will once again co-captain the team.
