WATCH: Johann van Graan on selection headaches and finding a Saracens weakness

Munster head coach Johann van Graan admits that there are a few 50/50 calls to make when he finalises his team to play Saracens in Saturday’s Champions Cup semi final in Coventry.

His much changed side put in a sterling performance to beat Benetton Rugby in their last Pro14 game and having a 54 man squad at his disposal gives him plenty of options for the titanic clash.

“There was a lot of guys that put up their hands and there is a few 50/50 calls that we need to make.

“We will also have to see how guys come through the week. I was really glad for the squad.

“It was very important for us to go and get that victory and it just showed that when you back your squad, you can be rewarded.”
