Earls named in Munster squad
Keith Earls
Keith Earls has been included in Tony McGahan’s extended squad for the RaboDirect PRO12 clash with Glasgow Warriors in Musgrave Park on Saturday (7.15pm).
The centre remains a doubt however having picked up a leg injury in Sunday's Heineken Cup defeat to Ulster.
Earls had a scan yesterday that showed some ankle ligament damage but it remains to be seen if he will be fit in time for this weekend’s game.
James Coughlan has joined the list of Munster’s big name injury victims along with the likes of Denis Leamy, Doug Howlett and Niall Ronan.
Coughlan will have surgery in Dublin tomorrow to address the broken bone in his hand which he suffered in Sunday’s game.
