Peter O'Mahony has been passed fit to lead out Munster when they meet the four-time champions Toulouse in the quarter-finals of the Heineken Cup at Thomond Park tomorrow afternoon (kick-off 1.30pm).

The Munster skipper was a last-minute withdrawal from the side beaten by Leinster at the Aviva last weekend but, having been limited to partial training earlier in the week, came through a full session yesterday.

The flanker is one of just two changes for the match in Limerick, with James Downey coming back into the side at inside centre.

Munster:Felix Jones; Keith Earls, Casey Laulala, James Downey, Simon Zebo; Ian Keatley, Conor Murray; Dave Kilcoyne, Damien Varley, BJ Botha; Dave Foley, Paul O'Connell; Peter O'Mahony, Tommy O'Donnell, James Coughlan.
