No injury worries for Munster

Munster fly out to the south of France tomorrow afternoon for their Heineken cup clash with Toulouse, with an injury-free 24-man squad and coach Alan Gaffney's major concern today was the disappointment he could not take more of his players with him.

He said: "We've no injury problems at all. Everyone's fine and everyone trained well today and we're going out there with a clean bill of health. We've stuck with the same 24 that did the job for us against Leicester and obviously there are still disappointed players out there."

"We again had to leave Mossie Lawlor out of the 24, which is disappointing in the fact that Mossie's played all bar one or two games this year for us on the wing. And he's not the only one. We've got a very good squad this year that's served us well right through the season and it's disappointing we can't take them all with us."

On the match itself, Gaffney added: "We expect a very difficult game and we'll treat Toulouse with the respect they deserve. They're one of the premier sides in Europe but then again so are we. We're playing them on their own dunghill but we're going over there with a great degree of confidence. If we play to our potential and play to our ability we'll give it a very good shot."
