Wed 01 Jan 2009Cullen and Dempsey back in the frame
LEINSTER COACH Michael Cheika has named an extended 28- man squad that includes Leo Cullen and Girvan Dempsey ahead of Saturday's Magners League match against Cardiff at the RDS. Cullen hasn't played since damaging a shoulder that subsequently required surgery during the province's Heineken Cup clash with Wasps at the RDS in October.
Dempsey's injury is of more recent vintage, sustained during the victory over Ulster at Ravenhill. The fullback was sidelined for last Friday's win over Connacht at the RDS but should be available for selection.
