Munster team manager Shaun Payne issued a cautionary clean bill of health for those involved in the bruising battle with Leinster as the Munster squad assembled today in Limerick for the start of their preparations for the quarter final clash with Northampton Saints on Saturday.

"Obviously there are plenty of bumps 'n bruises but we think everyone involved will be available for selection," he said before adding, "we really need to see how they come through the session today and the squad session tomorrow morning."

The squad will carry out their first squad session of the week tomorrow morning at the match venue and afterwards coach Tony McGahan will announce his squad for the quarter final.

Paul O'Connell and Keith Earls are both expected to be present.
