"In reviewing the bumps and bruises from Saturday’s quarter final win against Toulouse at Thomond Park, CJ Stander requires further assessment for an ankle sprain, while Peter O’Mahony, Dave Kilcoyne (both dead legs) and Keith Earls (back) are all expected to be introduced to full training this week.
"Conor Murray continues to be monitored for the shoulder knock that ruled him out of Saturday’s encounter. "Francis Saili will be hoping for further game time this week after securing two minutes on Saturday when he made an earlier than expected return to action after sustaining a knee injury against Cardiff Blues. Similarly Ian Keatley’s return from a knee injury, sustained during the same PRO12 encounter, has also progressed positively with the out-half due to take a further part in training this week."With the defending champions rumbling into the Aviva in under three weeks, Munster could really use all those men fit and firing. For their own sakes, Murray, Stander and O'Mahony will want to be standing on their own two feet when Warren Gatland names his Lions squad in a fortnight. Anxious times, exciting times.
