He scored his first try for the province against Edinburgh in the Heineken Cup, having come on as a substitute in a game Leinster ultimately lost 25–24.

2006

He won his first cap for Ireland in November 2006.

Fitzgerald earned the nickname "Pivot" from Leinster and Irish rugby fans due to his exciting runs and sidesteps from broken play.

Fitzgerald was named in Ireland’s squad for the Autumn 2006 international series.

After a strong performance against the 'Mid Week Wallabies" playing for Ireland A he won his first cap on 26 November 2006 against the Pacific Islands. In doing so, he became the youngest player to play for Ireland in 29 years. He also became the 999th player to be capped for Ireland.

After much public demand Fitzgerald was given a chance in the centre during Ireland's match with the Barbarians.

He had a fine game putting in a lot of tackles, notably on Lesley Vainikolo.

Burger was yellow-carded for the incident, and was subsequently banned for eight weeks for "making contact with the face in the eye area."

He was however cleared of gouging, as his action was found to be "reckless" but not intentional.

Fitzgerald believes Burger should have been sent off for gouging his eyes, "I went into the ruck, got cleaned out and felt a hand going for my eyes,"Given the seriousness of the allegations... you would have to say it was probably a red card."

In November 2009, Fitzgerald was injured in Ireland's game against Australia, forcing him out for the rest of the season.
