Back in action.
Munster look set for a huge fitness boost ahead of the first ever Guinness PRO14 final series with South African centre Jaco Taute in line for a return to action.
The Springbok has missed most of the current season, after he suffered knee ligament damage in Munster’s win over Cardiff Blues way back in September.
Jaco Taute, Ciaran Parker and Academy player Gavin Coombes going through a rigorous workout ahead of kick-off, look forward to seeing Jaco back in the starting XV! #MUNvULS #SUAF

He returned to on-field training last week was seen warming up with the squad ahead of Saturday’s clash with inter-provincial rivals Ulster at Thomond Park.
Munster face Edinburgh in Thomond Park this weekend, with the winner awarded a semi-final clash with Leinster at the RDS Arena on May 19.
Jaco Taute is in contention to return for Munster against Edinburgh on Saturday. Has been out with a knee injury since the end of September.
