Leamy has that rugby bug back

IT IS a measure of Denis Leamy’s modesty — not to mention the toughness of competition for places in the Munster team — that he’s taking nothing for granted in terms of selection for tomorrow’s key Heineken Cup clash with Bourgoin in Geneva.

Having been laid low by a stomach bug for a week or so after the New Year, the Tipperary man is busting a gut to play but, despite the fact he’s an established frontline international, he knows he will have to be on top form to make the side.
