| The Leinster team to face the Dragons in the Magners League clash at Donnybrook on Saturday has been named. |
Christian Warner will make his 50th appearance for the club and is one of seven changes to the starting XV who started last weekend's game in Edinburgh.
Luke Fitzgerald starts at full-back and is joined in a pacy-looking back three by Gary Brown and Denis Hickie.
In the pack, there is a first start for Samoan international prop Fosi Pala'amo while Owen Finegan will partner Cameron Jowitt in the second row.
Stephen Keogh, Keith Gleeson and Jamie Heaslip continue in the back row, while the side will be captained by Felipe Contepomi.
