Hello all and welcome to Ultimate Rugby's coverage of this Guinness Pro 12 clash between Cardiff Blues and Leinster at Cardiff Arms Park. Both sides welcome back international big guns following the international weekend off. Leinster make 8 changes from their convincing 52-point victory over Zebre. A win for the Irish side will see them edge past neighbours Ulster at the top of the table. Cardiff sit 6 places back in 9th, but a victory today will help them close that 8 point gap with Glasgow Warriors. They welcome back four Welsh internationals. But the weather will be the dominant feature in today's encounter with gale force winds and torrential rain. Let's see how both teams live up to it.
