Leinster Coach (sun-glasses on balcony) didn’t have much time to celebrate his teams European Cup victory as he was back in action running his eye over wing forwards and for inclusion in next Saturday’s Magners Final squad.

The match ended up 26 – 7 to Ireland U20 with Henderson and Marshall each crossing the line and Jackson and McKinney each adding a conversion apiece.

The final travelling squad should be confirmed later this week
