Snyman comes through return unscathed but Scannell and Donnelly pick up knocks against Scarlets

RG Snyman came through the game with no issues as he made his return from injury after a 17-month lay-off.

The Munster squad are on a down week after Friday’s win over Scarlets. They will return to the HPC next Monday to begin preparations ahead of the URC Round 16 clash against Glasgow Warriors at Thomond Park on Saturday, March 25 (5.15pm).

On the injury front following the Scarlets match, hooker Niall Scannell (shoulder) and Academy prop Mark Donnelly (knee) have both undergone scans and will begin a period of rehabilitation with the medical department.

Shane Daly passed his HIA and Academy full-back/winger Patrick Campbell has recovered from his calf knock.
