Because on Sunday afternoon Christian Cullen will land in Ireland arriving in the afternoon in Cork Airport. As yet exact details of his arrival plans have yet to be confirmed but as soon as they are we will carry them here on MunsterRugby.ie

Cullen will be met by members of the Munster senior management team and is expected to meet the Munster squad memebers early in the week. It is to be hoped that the celebration of the arrival in Munster of one of the greatest rugby players in the world will be coupled with the clebration of Ireland's passage to the semi-final of the Rugby World Cup.

While we welcome the arrival of Christian Cullen we also extend our best wishes to the Ireland squad who have done us so proud in Australia.
