Fears for Best ease as team tries to stay focused

FEARS for Ireland and Ulster rugby prop Simon Best eased last night after it was confirmed he should be able to return home within the next two days.

Specialists at Haut Leveque — one of France’s leading cardiology hospitals — have eliminated neurological problems as the source of his condition.

They believe the symptoms are related to a cardiac issue, allaying concerns he had suffered a stroke, but an exact diagnosis has yet to be determined.
