O’Gara ruled out of Reds squad for Ospreys trip

RONAN O’GARA has been omitted from the Munster squad for tomorrow night’s top-of-the-table Magners League game against the Ospreys as a precautionary measure.

The star out-half sustained a hamstring twinge early in last week’s clash with Ulster and retired after 14 minutes.

He has had ongoing treatment throughout the week and while coach Tony McGahan wasn’t prepared to risk him for the Ospreys game, the near certainty is that O’Gara will be available for the all-important Heineken Cup game against Sale Sharks a week later.
