Leinster must plan without Kane Douglas for the remainder of the season after it was confirmed this morning that he requires surgery to his back and will be out for three months.
The 24 year old Australian who signed from the Waratahs last summer missed the Champions Cup quarter final with Bath because of the disc issue, but the Leinster backroom team hoped the injury would rectify itself.
