The Breakdown EP82: Munster v Exeter & how the Irish Provinces can advance

So here we have it, weekend six of the Pool stages of the Heineken Champions and Challenge Cups sees all Irish provinces with reasonable chances of making the 1/4 finals. For Munster it is simple, a win will see Johann van Graan’s side win the group while a winning bonus point would see them relying on other results for a coveted home 1/4 final.
