Hickie, Byrne and Gleeson added to Leinster injury list

Leinster’s Heineken Cup bid has been hit by further injury worries ahead of their quarter-final tie against Biarritz at Lansdowne Road on Saturday.

Captain and prop Reggie Corrigan and centre/wing Shane Horgan were this week rated as unlikely starters, but coach Matt Williams, already with confirmed non-starters in Des Dillon, Paul Wallace and Andy Dunne, has been forced to add five more names to the injury list – four of them internationals.
