Wales' Humphreys on board for Bath
Skipper Jonathan Humphreys will be on board for Bath’s date with Leinster at Lansdowne Road tomorrow evening (5.15pm) The Welshman has mended from a shoulder strain and his front row colleague Duncan Bell is also included.
“This is a massive game for us. We played quite well in getting our Heineken Cup campaign off to a winning start last weekend, but this will be an altogether tougher proposition.
