Kearney brothers on the mend for Leinster

Rob and Dave Kearney are among the Leinster players in line to return from injury ahead of Saturday’s RaboDirect PRO12 meeting with Cardiff Blues in the RDS (6.30pm).

The Leinster medical team are hopeful Rob will have recovered from his back injury in time for the weekend’s game while younger brother Dave is expected to be in contention for selection having been sidelined since June.
