MUNSTER WELCOME BACK some of their big guns ahead of their trip to South Africa this week for a double helping of URC action.
Shane Daly, Calvin Nash, RG Snyman, Oli Jager and Fineen Wycherley have been included in the travelling group after missing recent games due to injury or illness.
Those absentees hit Munster’s challenge as they exited the Champions Cup eight days ago, losing 24-14 against Northampton at Franklin’s Gardens at the last 16 stage.
Munster players and management will arrive in Pretoria tomorrow afternoon and begin preparations ahead of Saturday’s Round 14 game against the Bulls (4.05pm Irish time).
