The 29-year-old Welshman was involved in an incident at a nightclub, and it had been suggested that Toulon may release Henson.

However, Henson will now stay with the French giants.

“President Mourad Boudjellal and Toulon’s sporting staff have decided to reintegrate Welsh centre Gavin Henson into the Toulon squad,” said Toulon.

The Welsh centre will find out if he still has a future at the French club on Monday after breaching a disciplinary code.

Dragons team manager Robert Beale told BBC Sport: “We’re definitely looking to add to our squad in that position for next season.”

The Welshman was suspended after a nightclub brawl with his team-mates, and some reports have suggested that Toulon will cut their ties with the 29-year-old.

Team manager Tom Whitford told the BBC: “We’ve had a meeting with Gavin and we’ll take a bit of time to reflect before making any announcement.”

Henson, who has only played twice for Toulon since joining them in February, also faces a Welsh Rugby Union probe for a separate incident that took place earlier this month.

The 33-year-old France star was suspended for the comments made in a newspaper ahead of the release of his autobiography. Chabal suggested in the article that referees favoured Castres, the rivals of his team, Racing Metro.

“I’m sorry that this caused controversy. I’m sorry if people were hurt. I apologise for it because I didn’t want to attack anyone,” Chabal told French television station RTL.

“I’m sorry for what came out in an article in a certain newspaper this Sunday. In my book I talk about refereeing in a good-natured way. There’s 10 pages or so and you can’t just take words like that out of context.”

Leinster captain O’Driscoll will lead out his team against Toulouse in Dublin, and is keen to prepare well to secure a victory even if it means missing the wedding.

Extra spice is added to the fixture as the French giants knocked Leinster out of the competition at the same stage last year.

O’Driscoll told the Guardian: “I have a captain’s run on Friday and as big an honour as it was to be invited, I can’t ask for team runs to be at half-six in the evening so I can go to the wedding. The team ethos comes first.”

The offence would usually be punished with a 18-week ban, but the RFU has halved that ban due to mitigating circumstances, meaning that Cueto, 31, will be available for England’s World Cup campaign in New Zealand.

“At the hearing Cueto did not contest the citing and he was suspended for nine weeks,” the RFU said.

“The suspension runs from 4 April to 6 June and he can resume playing on 7 June.

“The panel decided this was a mid-entry offence, which attracts a ban of 18 weeks, but because of the player’s compelling mitigation he received the full 50% discount.”

England failed at the final hurdle in their Grand Slam attempt after being soundly beaten by Ireland.

Shaw, 37, told the Daily Telegraph: “In order to have beaten Ireland, we really needed to have raised our game to another level from the intensity we produced in Cardiff.”

He added: “I still believe, though, that if we get that right in New Zealand, there is no reason why we can’t go on to reach the final, as we did in 2007, and go one better this time.”

Young had spent almost nine years working for the International Rugby Board, who own the World Cup. In this time, Young played a major role in 2003 in Australia, and 2007 in France. He is now working on New Zealand’s preparations for this year’s World Cup.

Since Young has been involved, Rugby’s biggest tournament has generated record surpluses for the IRB to invest in the development of the Game. Now installed as one of the world’s top three global sporting events, Rugby World Cup attendance topped over 2m in 2007.

Easter stands in as captain for the injured Mike Tindall, who himself stood in for the injured squad captain Lewis Moody.

Ireland will want to keep up their good record against the English in Dublin at the Aviva Stadium on Saturday. England haven’t won in Dublin since 2003 – the last time they also won a Grand Slam.

“When the fixtures came out most people thought this would be the hardest game and I don’t think we’ll be disappointed,” Easter commented. “We realise after last week’s not-so-hot performance that it was a good kick up the backside in order to make sure we do produce the goods on Saturday. It is going to be a pretty easy game to captain in terms of the build-up because these guys will need no motivation to get up for the game. This is a bigger Test match than most”.

For fly-half Jonny Wilkinson, the encounter has refreshed memories of that Grand Slam match in Dublin seven years ago. “No one in the England camp underestimates how tough it’ll be to win there again. It’s a sensational end to the championship.”

Ireland have won 6 of the last 7 meetings in Dublin and England will in no way underestimate them on their quest for the Grand Slam.

The Azzurri go into the encounter inspired by the 22-21 triumph over France in Rome, their first win in the competition this year, and make six changes going in to this match. Treviso’s Alberto Sgarbi replaces Gonzalo Garcia at centre while his club team-mate, Kris Burton, takes Luciano Orquera’s place at No.9 and Paul Derbyshire will earn his first Six Nations start in Scotland. Leicester prop, Martin Castrogiovanni is the only player in Italy’s first line that has kept his spot, with Leonardo Ghiraldini and Salvatore Perugini returning to the team. Quintin Geldenhuys will also start after being relegated to the replacements bench against France.

Italy are two points clear of Scotland after victory last week and the Scots hope to finish the tournament with some dignity after losing all five of their games so far. They haven’t ‘won’ the wooden spoon since 2007, finishing one place above Italy in the past three tournaments.

France coach Marc Lievremont makes five changes to his side for the clash against Wales. Alexis Palisson of Brive, who has failed to nail down a consistent starting berth, is on the left wing. Damien Traille and David Marty are reunited in the centre six years after last playing there and Thomas Domingo, wrecker of the Scotland scrum before being rested for the defeat to Italy in Rome, returns along with the No8 Imanol Harinordoquy, who described last Saturday’s defeated squad as “useless prats”.

Wales are the only team that can scupper England’s title chances and will want to continue their good form in Paris. France, however, come off the back of a one point defeat to italy, with Lievremont given the unwanted award of being the first French Manager to lose against the Italians.

Ireland have brought in Andrew Trimble and Johnathan Sexton for the game in Dublin. Trimble’s inclusion on the wing results in Keith Earls moving to full-back and Luke Fitzgerald dropping out of the squad. Sexton comes into the fly-half role at the expense of Munster’s Ronan O’Gara, who moves to the replacements bench, despite the veteran numer 10′s good form. Eoin Reddan is named at scrum-half despite suffering concussion against Wales on Saturday.

Should Ireland beat England and Wales win heavily against France, England will miss out on the Six Nations title altogether, let alone their first Grand Slam title in eight years. England go to Dublin having lost six of their last seven meetings on Irish soil, but with their best chance of a Six Nations Grand Slam since 2003.

Tindall had been standing in as skipper during the Six Nations for injured squad captain Lewis Moody and Nick Easter will captain the side on Saturday. 6ft 7in Matt Banahan comes in at centre to replace Tindall in what is a crucial match for England at the Aviva Stadium.

If England beat Ireland they will complete their first Grand Slam since 2003 when a team led by Martin Johnson won their final match at the old Lansdowne Road, which the Aviva Stadium has replaced. Unless Wales win heavily against France, England will still take the Six Nations title on points difference, if Ireland win.

England will win the Grand Slam if they defeat Ireland, and Cueto, 31, will pull out all the stops to make sure that happens.

“You can count on one hand the times you get something tangible out of rugby,” Cueto told the official Six Nations website.

“I’ve never won anything in seven or eight years with England. I’m not getting any younger, so this is a massive opportunity on a personal level.

“When you get so little time together, that’s such a big factor. And that’s what we’ve had over the last 12-18 months, a clear sense of a squad of players.”

“We go away to probably the toughest place to play right now in Europe.”

Many Irish players have spoken of injustice after a controversial try was awarded to Wales on the way to their 19-13 win. Captain Brian O’Driscoll was infuriated by Mike Phillips’ crucial second-half try after an illegal quick line-out throw-in.

However, Kidney has asked his players to not dwell on the incident, and concentrate on their next match with England.

“Our job is to prepare for the next game. If we keep looking at the past we’ll never get anywhere,” said Kidney.

“What doesn’t kill you makes you stronger, that’s the test. This tests the team. I don’t think it will be hard to get this calibre of player ready for England.”

England laboured to victory 22-16 against Scotland at Twickenham, and struggled to impose themselves on, what many perceived, weaker opponents.

A win against the Irish would guarantee a Grand Slam, which England have no achieved since John was captain in 2003.

“We’ll be in a fight (against Ireland) and we’ve got to make sure we are a bit smarter the next time we play.”

Youngs is currently England’s first-choice scrum-half and preparing to take on Scotland in Sunday’s Calcutta Cup clash. But before his first call up, the Leicester No9 found it hard to understand what Johnson was telling him.

According to the Evening Standard, Youngs feared the worst when Martin Johnson told him: “You’re on the bench”.

Young said: “I was in the team hotel in Bagshot when Johnno came up and said I was on the bench. As Leicester had been knocked out of the LV Cup, I didn’t think we had a game. I then thought that if one had been arranged at short notice, I couldn’t understand why I had been dropped to the bench by the club.

“I told Johnno this and he looked at me in amazement and said: ‘No, you are on the bench for us!’ All I could say was ‘brilliant’ as it started to sink in.
