Just what the doctor ordered.
Leinster are gearing up this week for their biggest match in a very long time, with the eastern province set to take on Racing 92 on Saturday in the European Champions Cup final.
The French side are chasing their first ever championship, while Leinster will be hoping to tie the current record, and lift their fourth European title.
And preparations have gotten off to the perfect start this week, with news that scrumhalf Luke McGrath is in line to be fit this weekend. Des Berry is reporting in the Irish Independent that the Ireland international has been hitting his markers, and will likely be available for selection in Bilbao.
The news means a double boost for Leinster, who will be able to select James Lowe in their squad also if McGrath comes in to take Jamison Gibson Park’s place.
