Denis Hickie has recovered from injury to take his place in the Ireland squad against Australia, with John Kelly named on the bench. This means Geordan Murphy should be available to play for Tigers against Saints on Saturday.

News which will give some confidence to the team and supporters as without Tim Stimpson and Geordan Murphy the team would lack a class full-back and goal-kicker.

However, Geordan has already been named in the Ireland squad to face Fiji next week and so will miss the clash with Gloucester at Welford Road.
