MUNSTER HAVE made five changes for Friday’s clash with Edinburgh at the Hive Stadium (7.35pm, live on TG4 & Premier Sports).

Mike Haley and Antoine Frisch start in the backline while Oli Jager, Fineen Wycherley and Gavin Coombes will be part of the pack.

There are also two positional switches — Alex Nankivell will play at inside centre and Jack O’Donoghue moves from number 8 to blindside flanker.

O’Donoghue will become the 14th player to reach the 200-appearance landmark for the province. The 30-year-old is also the youngest player to achieve that feat.

Meanwhile, Joey Carbery and Peter O’Mahony remain unavailable for selection due to knocks.
