Quotes from head coaches
Leo Cullen: "The form book does go out the window. It’s another big provincial game at the Aviva and you want that to be a celebration of provincial rugby and of the rivalry.
“Hopefully, we’ll have not just blue jerseys about but plenty of red ones in there as well because you want that, don’t you?"
Graham Rowntree: "We will have to be even more clinical around some of our lineout possession. I’m confident we can put pressure on any team if we can keep the ball when we are in their 22. Factually, we are very good with limited minutes, we can score tries. That has been a big focus. But we have to be better, we know that.”
