Leinster to wait as O'Driscoll in race for fitness

Province’s staff to wait until 48 hours before game in France to make decision.

A FINAL CALL will be made on Brian O’Driscoll’s availability for Leinster’s Heineken Cup tie at Clermont Auvergne on Friday.

The centre hurt his jaw while in the defeat of Argentina last month.

His injury is being monitored with management ready to wait 48 hours in advance of the showdown to decide on his involvement, if any.

Team-mates Isaac Boss, Jason Harris-Wright, Cian Healy and Jamie Heaslip are all in contention for selection after missing Leinster’s 17-17 draw with the Scarlets on Friday night.
