Injury crisis looms for Leinster

Leinster coach Michael Chieka will want his players at or near their best before a reputed 12,000 crowd against Edinburgh in Friday's Magners League clash at The RDS.

Prop Ronnie McCormack is struggling with an Achilles injury which could turn into a crisis given that Cian Healy and Stephen Knoop are the only other props selected in the squad.
