MUNSTER’S GUINNESS PRO12 meeting with Edinburgh has been re-fixed to take place on Friday 3 February (kick-off: 19.35) in Myreside.
The rescheduling adds an extra warm-up for Irish fans travelling to the Scottish capital for Ireland’s Six Nations opener in Murrayfield (kick-off 14.25) the following day.
Munster’s clash with Edinburgh was originally scheduled for 7 January, but was pushed back to accommodate the Champions Cup meeting with Racing Metro. That game had been due to be played on 16 October until news of Anthony Foley’s untimely death emerged in Paris.
The rescheduling also means that Munster’s hectic fixture list continues while the 10 other Pro12 sides are currently marked for a weekend off during the opening round of the Six Nations.
