Hardwick returns to London Irish's front row

London Irish, already eliminated from the Pool Five equation, have only pride to play for against visitors Toulouse on Sunday.

Irish face a tough task against the French giants, who know that a sixth straight victory in group five would probably confirm them as quarter-final top seeds.

Despite the match's meaningless status, London Irish have named a strong side with Rob Hardwick, Kieron Dawson and Brendan Venter all starting through squad rotation.

Toulouse won the return fixture in October, beating the Exiles on their Heineken Cup debut 28-23.
