Leinster in a good place for Champions Cup trip to France

The plan for Tadhg Furlong, who hasn't played since mid-October, is that he will be ready for the Six Nations.

James Lowe definitely won’t be facing La Rochelle in France this week, Tadhg Furlong probably won’t, but there is good news for Leinster in the form of other returning stars as they brace for the Stade Marcel Deflandre.

Hugo Keenan, Ciarán Frawley, Jack Conan, Thomas Clarkson and Max Deegan have all been added to Leo Cullen’s arsenal this week. Jamie Osborne, Jordan Larmour and Tommy O’Brien came through the win over Munster with no issues and could play their own parts.
