Video & Pics: Connacht V Munster

With tries from the returning Mike Sherry and captain on the night CJ Stander, check out our match gallery and video highlights from Munster’s pre-season friendly against Connacht at Thomond Park last Friday night.

Despite Munster crossing the whitewash on two occasions, it would be the Connacht-men’s night after they won the breakdown battle and outmuscled Foley’s charges in the line-out maul, using the set piece move in scoring all four of their tries – 28-12 the full time score. Read a full report here.

With Mike Sherry making his first appearance for the province since 2013, the game also saw Francis Saili and Shane Monahan make their debuts for the province.

All eyes now turn to the challenge of London Irish at Irish Independent Park this Friday in the second and final clash of the Kearys Renault Series – KO 7pm.
