O'Leary and Flannery on the mend

Munster's Tomás O'Leary and Jerry Flannery are right on track in their recovery from injury.

Scrum-half O'Leary is now off his crutches on his way back from a broken ankle and hooker Flannery is taking selective training after elbow ligament damage.

In other Munster news, wing Ciaran O'Boyle's pre-season has been stalled by hamstring issues, while prop Darragh Hurley and scrum-half Duncan Williams are improving after surgery.

Former Leinster full-back Felix Jones links up with his new team-mates on Monday at the same time as Churchill Cup forward contingent Denis Hurley, Denis Fogarty, Donnacha Ryan, Niall Ronan and Tony Buckley return from their holidays.
