Foot injury may end Ryan’s season

Donnacha Ryan is in danger of missing the rest of what’s left of Munster’s season, his troublesome foot/toe injury flaring up again in the last week.

Ryan had been making progress in the build-up to Sunday’s Heineken Cup semi-final against Toulon and was, at one stage, in the mix for selection.

Sadly, the experienced forward had a setback and Munster coach Rob Penney is worried Ryan may not be available for any of the remaining games, certainly not for Saturday’s crucial Pro12 clash with Edinburgh at Meggetland.
