O’Connell set for final charge
The ankle ligament damage suffered in the Magners League win over Leinster earlier this month will sideline O’Connell for another four weeks but not the six or eight weeks that would have ended his domestic season.
The injury timeframe gives him a twin target of a Magners League and Amlin Challenge Cup finals in May — provided Munster are involved.
