The visit of the Southern Kings to the RDS will be an opportunity to see many of Leinster's talented youngsters get a chance to shine on the hallowed RDS turf.
With the game taking place in the middle of the busy Six Nations schedule, many of Leinster's frontline senior internationals will be away with the Irish squad, giving the boys in blue an opportunity to blood some of the long line of talented players from their youth ranks.
At last season's 67-7 blowout win, up-and-coming outhalf Ciarán Frawley bagged 19 points and the Man of the Match award in his first start for Leinster. The Southern Kings, hailing from Port Elizabeth, struggled in their debut season and will be looking to improve on a very tough first year playing in the northern hemisphere.
