Flannery and Jones now assume the roles of Forwards Coach and Backline and Attack Coach for the province.

Following retirement from playing, Flannery joined Munster’s coaching staff as Scrum Coach at the start of the 2014/15 season and has played his part in bringing the squad to two Guinness PRO12 finals and a Champions Cup semi-final over a three-year coaching period.
