O’Kelly and Gleeson on wounded list

IRISH internationals Keith Gleeson and Malcolm O’Kelly are both nursing injuries as Leinster prepare for the big Heineken Cup match of the weekend away to Montferrand.

But both Gleeson (ankle) and O'Kelly (back strain) are expected to make the cut as Leinster go in search of the big result that could boost their chances of advancing to the knock-out stages of the tournament.

Coach Matt Williams had more problems than injuries in the last couple of days. The Leinster Branch video equipment was stolen from Anglesea Road and, yesterday, the squad was unable to carry out video analysis on their French rivals.
