Sexton provisionally included in Leinster squad

Jonathan Sexton has been provisionally included in the Leinster squad to face Harlequins this Sunday in the Heineken Cup quarter-finals.

The fly-half faces a citing hearing this afternoon for allegedly kicking Munster's Lifeimi Mafi during last weekend's Magners League clash.

He could be suspended for between four and 12 weeks if found guilty of the offence.

Elsewhere, Brian O’Driscoll has also been included in the squad, alongside Luke Fitzgerald and Bernard Jackman, but CJ van der Linde is ruled out due to injury.

Munster, meanwhile, are also set to name the squad this afternoon for their clash with the Ospreys.

Denis Leamy is expected back, but Rua Tipoki is definitely out for several more weeks.
