WATCH: Rory Scannell “I think we can do it but it’s going to be a tough ask”

Munster centre, Rory Scannell has been on the losing side against Leinster both home and away this season and is hoping for third time lucky this Saturday. Munster have reached the semi-final stage of the Pro 14 after finishing second in their conference before dispatching Edinburgh in the quarter finals in Thomond Park.

Scannell, is aware of the threat that Leinster pose and is taking nothing for granted come this weekend with a place in the the final up for grabs.

“I think we have a squad that thinks that they an go on to win this. I’ve been involved in sides that have beaten Leinster so I know that we can do it.”

“You saw at the weekend, Leinster were dragged into an arm wrestle with a big physical Racing side. They can vary there game as well, it was a typical free-flowing rugby from Leinster but they came out the right side of that arm wrestle.”
