| D’Arcy included in Leinster squad |

| Keith Gleason and Gordon D’Arcy are both included in the Leinster squad for Sunday’s game with The Ospreys. |
Gleeson returns to the squad after a long absence, along with the possible inclusion of Gordon D'Arcy - subject to a late fitness test. Emmett Byrne also returns following a quad strain sustained against the Newport Gwent Dragons.
The squad also includes Eric Miller and Guy Easterby - both replacements in Ireland's defeat over England last weekend while there are also places for Shane Jennings, David Holwell, Victor Costello and Christian Warner fresh from an impressive two-try performance in the recent defeat to Edinburgh.
Further to fitness testing on certain players, it is unlikely that a team will not be announced until Sunday. Felipe Contepomi misses the game having sustained bruising of the chest in training.
Forwards from:
John Lyne, Emmett Byrne, Ricky Nebbett, David Blaney, Gavin Hickie, Ben Gissing, Ciaran Potts, Aidan McCullen, Des Dillon, Niall Ronan, Shane Jennings, Victor Costello, Eric Miller, Keith Gleeson
Backs from:
Brian O'Riordan, Guy Easterby, Brian O'Meara, David Holwell, David McAllister, Gordon D'Arcy, Christian Warner, Kieran Lewis, James Norton, John McWeeney, Gary Brown, David Hewitt
