The walking wounded look to be all ok.
Ever since last week’s Jared Payne fiasco where the media were told he was OK – yet just hours later he was ruled out through a broken foot – it’s been hard to take anything the Irish rugby squad have said about players fitness too seriously.
But we’re going to let our own eyes judge for us the availability of some of our key doubts ahead of Sunday’s Rugby World Cup clash with Argentina.
The Ireland squad have been led out for the Captain’s Run this morning at the Millennium Stadium by Jamie Heaslip, and it appears at least that Sexton’s groin injury has cleared up for him to take a full part in the session

Keith Earls also looks like he’s in OK shape after taking a hefty knock in the win over France
