No Surprises In Munster Squad

No Surprises In Munster Squad

All the usual suspects, with the exception of Tony Buckley, have been included in the 26 strong Munster squad for the Magners Grand Final against Leinster on Saturday, a game that should see David Wallace win his 200th cap.

Buckley has been ruled out with a shoulder injury that was operated on earlier in the week.

Paul O'Connell looking forward to the final “I think when it comes to Munster and Leinster they have helped each other over the years with the rivalry and pushing each other each on, and no doubt it’s helped Irish rugby also. It’s going to be a very tough challenge for us with the form they’re in.”

“We’re going to need to take every opportunity we get, we’re playing at home and probably our biggest rivals. They are the Heineken Cup Champions and there’s silverware up for grabs so both sides will be up for it mentally. We’ll need to take any scoring opportunities we get.”

Munster Squad: P Warwick, S Zebo, F Jones, D Barnes, K Earls, D Howlett, L Mafi, J Murphy, C Murray, T O'Leary, P Stringer, R O'Gara, S Archer, W du Preez, J Hayes, M Horan, M Sherry, D Varley,  D O'Callaghan, P O'Connell, M O'Driscoll, D Leamy, N Ronan, D Ryan, J Coughlan, D Wallace.
