Munster release squad update ahead of Leinster clash

Graham Rowntree is dealing with a number of injuries in his squad, as they prepare for the sold-out St Stephen’s Day showdown with Leinster.

Munster have issued a squad update as they prepare at the HPC ahead of the sold-out St Stephen’s Day URC Interpro derby against Leinster at Thomond Park.

Peter O’Mahony is continuing to rehab his shoulder injury, while Jack O’Donoghue was removed on Sunday with a hip injury and his availability will be determined later in the week.

They join a rather large injury list, alongside Patrick Campbell who suffered a shoulder injury at the weekend with Young Munster, and is now set to attend a specialist for review.

Jack O’Sullivan is completing the return to play protocols, while Edwin Edogbo will be monitored in training this week, and the pair’s availability is yet to be determined.

Fineen Wycherley (shoulder), Jean Kleyn (eye), Jack Daly (ankle), Liam Coombes (shoulder), Niall Scannell (groin), RG Snyman (chest/shoulder), Joey Carbery (wrist), Roman Salanoa (knee), Mike Haley (hip), Cian Hurley (ankle/achilles) all continue to rehab for their respective injuries.
