RG SNYMAN starts for Munster for Saturday’s URC clash with the Bulls at Loftus Versfeld (4.05pm Irish time, RTÉ, Premier Sports, URC TV).
The South African lock is one of six personnel changes and one positional switch to the side that lost to Northampton Saints two weeks ago.
Calvin Nash, Shane Daly and Snyman start having missed out last time due to injury/illness with Conor Murray, Alex Kendellen and Jack O’Donoghue also coming into the starting XV.
Simon Zebo moves to full-back with Nash and Daly starting on either wing.
Alex Nankivell and Antoine Frisch continue their centre partnership with Murray and Jack Crowley in the half-backs.

Jeremy Loughman, Niall Scannell and Stephen Archer start in an unchanged front row with Snyman and captain Tadhg Beirne paired together in the engine room for the first time.
A back row of Peter O’Mahony, Kendellen and O’Donoghue complete the side. O’Donoghue makes his first start since New Year’s Day on his 197th Munster appearance.
Eoghan Clarke, Josh Wycherley and Oli Jager, who returns from injury, provide the front row back-up.
