Injury worries for Leinster ahead of Munster clash

Leinster coach Joe Schmidt has indicated he will wait until Thursday before making a decision on the involvement of Jonathan Sexton against Munster in the Magner's League on Saturday.

Scotland international Nathan Hines will come into contention for a place in the second row following a rehabilitative period from injury.

Another lock, Ed O'Dononghue, has been ruled out of action this week due to a knee injury. Captain Leo Cullen is still some way off full fitness.
