Munster received a boost ahead of their Pro14 semifinal showdown against Leinster in Dublin on Saturday.

Irish stars Keith Earls and Joey Carbery have both returned to full training at Munster’s High Performance Centre in Limerick this week and they will be monitored as the week progresses.

Hooker Rhys Marshall has also returned to full training.

Meanwhile, the following players are progressing with rehabilitation: Jeremy Loughman (hamstring), Alex Wootton (knee), Brian Scott (foot), James Cronin (leg).

Earls has been out with a thigh injury and was a late withdrawal ahead of his team’s quarterfinal win against Benetton.

Carbery has been struggling with hamstring issue he picked up in his team’s Champions Cup quarterfinal against Edinburgh.
