Leamy fitness boost for Munster

Watch Monday night's Against The Head which includes highlights of England v Ireland.

Munster have been handed a boost ahead of their Heineken Cup quarter-final against Perpignan on April 11 with the news that Denis Leamy's ankle injury is not as serious as first thought.

Leamy went off injured during Ireland's dramatic victory over England at the weekend but a scan on his injured ankle this morning revealed there is no serious ligament damage.

The number 8 has been ruled out of this weekend's Celtic League match in Llanelli, but he is walking without crutches and should resume light training later this week.
