Leinster coach Michael Cheika has confirmed that Fosi Pala'amo, Jonathan Sexton and Paul O'Donohoe have been registered for the knockout stages of the Heineken Cup.

Leinster coach Michael Cheika will wait anxiously for the swelling on Fosi Pala'amo's ankle to come down so that the medical staff can judge whether he has suffered a sprain or ligament damage.

Jamie Heaslip is the surprise selection to captain Leinster ahead of Keith Gleeson against Glasgow in the Magners League at Donnybrook on Friday.
