James Hart is with Munster ahead of Toulouse tie

Scrum-half James Hart will have more than a passing interest in Munster’s clash with Toulouse as the side he will be joining in the summer battles it out in a Champions Cup quarter-final against the side he will face for Racing 92 in two weeks.

Hart will soon join Munster on a two-year deal but is anxious to play his part as reigning champions Racing 92 mount a late bid to hold on to their Top 14 crown.

He has played against both Toulouse and Munster this season, having joined after six years with Grenoble, and is confident Rassie Erasmus’ men will advance to the semi-finals on Saturday.
