Leinster forced into late change as Devin Toner ruled out through illness

LEINSTER HAVE BEEN forced into a late change ahead of their crucial Guinness Pro12 game against Treviso this afternoon, with illness ruling Devin Toner out.

The Ireland international is replaced by Ross Molony in the second-row with Hayden Triggs promoted to the bench.

Leo Cullen named his starting XV for the final game of the regular season yesterday, with Josh van der Flier, Sean O’Brien and Luke Fitzgerald all absent through injury.

Leinster go into today’s clash sitting third in the standings but know a bonus-point victory would assure them of a home semi-final with the top two, Glasgow and Connacht, meeting in Galway.

All games kick-off at 3pm.
