Leinster report no fresh injury problems ahead of their Heineken Cup semi-final clash with ASM Clermont-Auvergne in Bordeaux on Sunday (3pm).

The squad, who will wear blue for the match at Stade Chaban-Delmas, trained at the RDS earlier today.

Gordon D’Arcy, Jamie Heaslip and Isa Nacewa, who were all rested for the weekend derby win over Ulster, rejoined the squad, which also includes newly crowned Leinster Players’ Player of the Year Rob Kearney.

Centre Eoin O’Malley, who missed the Ravenhill clash with a calf injury, has not been ruled of contention for selection and will undergo further assessment by the medical team.

Ahead of their seventh semi-final appearance, Leinster centre Brian O’Driscoll lies just one behind Toulouse wing Vincent Clerc’s all-time try-scoring record of 32.

Captain Leo Cullen’s next outing in the competition will be his 80th – with the total made of his two-part Leinster career and 12 appearances for the Leiceister Tigers.
