Ronan O’Gara is turning to a Cork company for help getting La Rochelle scrum-half Tawera Kerr-Barlow on the pitch for Saturday’s Heineken Champions Cup final against Leinster.

The New Zealander was initially thought to have been ruled out for the European showdown in Marseille after the 2015 World Cup winner broke two bones in his hand during the semi-final victory over Racing 92 10 days ago.
