The Munster Women, sponsored by Keanes, will compete in their final interprovincial encounter when they face Leinster in Woodleigh Park (Highfield RFC) on Saturday, 17th September, ko 3.00 pm

This promises to be a highly competitive fixture as both teams have been undefeated in the series to date.

Leinster are no doubt travelling to Cork in a bid to put an end to Munster’s interprovincial reign.

Gary Walsh, Head Coach, has made one change from last Saturday’s 18-12 victory over Ulster as Louise Costello comes into the scrum-half position and Clara Bracken makes way to the bench.

Women's Squad: Niamh Briggs (UL Bohs), Claire Keohane (UL Bohs), Niamh Kavanagh (UL Bohs), Nicole Scully (Highfield), Ashling Hutchins (UL Bohs), Laura O’Mahony (Tralee), Louise Costello (UL Bohs), Fiona Hayes (UL Bohs), Chris Fanning (Highfield), Gilian Bourke (UL Bohs), Maeve D’Arcy (UL Bohs), Heather O’Brien (Highfield), Siobhan Fleming (Tralee), Laura Guest (Highfield), Joy Neville (Capt) (UL Bohs). Replacements: Noreen Cleary (Tralee), Orlaith Buckley (Highfield), Elaine Anthony (Waterford City), Donna Hughes (Highfield), Clara Bracken (Clonmel) Olivia Stepleton (UL Bohs), Geraldine Rea (Highfield)
