Aviva Opens Its Doors To Rugby

31st July 2010 By Munster Rugby

Aviva Opens Its Doors To Rugby

The new Aviva Stadium opens its doors today with the O2 Challenge game between Under 18/20 composite sides from Connacht/Munster and Leinster/Ulster.

And if the new Stadium will be unrecognisable from the old so too will be most of those taking part in the game that has a 2.30pm kick off.

Munster provide the midfield combination with former Schools international Daniel Horgan partnering Ben Sargent in the centre with Jonathan Holland at out-half.

Up front the Pres 2010 Munster Schools Cup winning pair, Rob O'Herlihy and David O'Mahony lock the scrum with Kieran Stokes at hooker, Paul Mullen at tight-head and Shane Buckley in the back-row.

Gareth Quinn-McDonagh is the only Munster Academy player in the 22, on the Munster dominated bench along with James Rael, Ian Mullarkey, Ronan Barry, Jack Costigan and Cathal Quinn
