Good news for Munster

There was good news for Munster coach Declan Kidney ahead of their Heineken Cup clash with Castres on Friday as John Hayes, Jerry Flannery and John Kelly all took some part in training yesterday.

As usual, Kidney gave next to nothing away when he said: "None are ruled out and that's always good in a six-day turnaround."

Otherwise, the squad is in buoyant mood after a one-point win over Edinburgh at the weekend and they will go to France knowing that a win is within their grasp.

MUNSTER SQUAD:

Forwards: M Horan, J Hayes, F Pucciarello, F Roche, J Flannery, D Fogarty, T Hogan, P O'Connell, M O'Driscoll, D O'Callaghan, D Leamy, S Keogh, D Wallace A. Foley.

Backs: P Stringer, T O'Leary, R O'Gara, J Manning, J Kelly, A Horgan, I Dowling, B Murphy, T Halstead, G Connolly, M Lawler, S Payne.
