Munster Handed Huge International Boost Ahead Of Dragons Clash

Munster’s Director of Rugby Rassie Erasmus has confirmed that returning internationals Conor Murray and Keith Earls will be available for selection this week for Saturday’s clash with the Newport Gwent Dragons.

Tyler Bleyendaal is also expected to be back in the mix after recovering from a mild calf strain. Tommy O’Donnell sustained a concussion against the Cardiff Blues on Friday with the flanker currently following return to play protocols, while Rory Scannell’s neck injury was not as bad as first feared and the centre continues to be monitored by the medical team this week.
