JOEY CARBERY IS set to return to action for Munster in tomorrow evening’s festive interpro against Leinster [kick-off 6pm].
Carbery, who has been sidelined since the Rugby World Cup by the ankle injury which disrupted his tournament, is named among the replacements for the sold-out clash at Thomond Park.
Head coach Johann van Graan makes seven changes in total to the side which beat Connacht at the Sportsground last weekend.
