Legends Line Out For Charity

An experienced Ireland Legends squad of over 475 caps will take on their English counterparts in the Stuart Mangan Memorial Cup on Saturday February 28th at Donnybrook Stadium.

The Legends fixture is played every year on the eve of the RBS 6 Nations fixture between the two nations with all proceeds from the game going to the IRFU Charitable Trust and the RFU All Schools Charity.
The two teams are made up of former Ireland and England internationals with a number of past Munster players set to don the green jersey once again.

Confirmed in the Ireland squad are Shane Byrne (41 Caps), Nick Popplewell (48 Caps), Mick Galwey (41 Caps), Trevor Brennan (12 Caps), Paddy Wallace (30 Caps), Kieran Dawson (21 Caps), Marcus Horan (67 Caps), Paddy Johns (59 Caps) and Leo Cullen (32 Caps). See full squad below.

The England Legends will be managed by Jason Leonard, the 114 time capped World Cup winner, with fellow World Cup winners Martin Corry (64 caps) and Iain Balshaw (34 caps) lining out for the Englishmen.

This year's fixture will take place in Donnybrook Stadium on Saturday February 28th at 7:30pm. Tickets are available online here with gate receipts going to charity.
