"It's been frustrating over the past few months because I have had to miss games for club and country so to be fit for this game and up for selection I am delighted," he said.
"I'm fine, my back hasn't been a problem this season, this season I was injured because I pulled my thigh the day before the season started so it has no connection to my back.
"So my back is in a clean bill of health so that's not a concern of mine any more."
