Darragh Murray is one of a number of midlands players making an impact in South Africa.
The Emerging Ireland squad finish their tour of South Africa with a contest against the Cheetahs in Blomfontein this evening.
Simon Easterby has named a much changed starting fifteen, with a completely new back-row of James Culhane, Harry Sheridan, and Sean Edogbo.
Offaly forward Cormac Izuchukwu, who had started Ireland's previous two games, drops from the matchday squad, as does former Tullamore man Ronan Foxe.
Fox started in Easterby's front row last time out.
Former Buccaneer forward Darragh Murrray comes back into the second row after being rested against Western Force last time out.
Kick off in the Toyota Stadium is at 6pm Irish time.
