Rob Kearney trained and will be available for selection for this weekend after a tight back in the warm-up kept him out of the starting line-up against Munster.

Mike Ross should be available for selection this weekend, but an assessment will be made later in the week before the team announcement on Friday afternoon.

There is good news too regarding fellow prop Jack McGrath as he is expected to be available for the visit to the Italian side.

Zane Kirchner, who pulled up with a hamstring injury in the Round Two win over the Scarlets, is expected to be available for selection this weekend, with Martin Moore also back in the mix.
