HAVING defeated Ulster twice this season in the A Interprovincial Championship, Munster will be fancied to complete the hat-trick as they take on the Ravens in the semi-final of the inaugural British & Irish Cup at Thomond Park this afternoon.

THE IRFU have appointed three new members to the management of the national team.

THE expected result, but it came in unexpected circumstances. The Datapac Sigerson favourites survived a scare in Rossa Park and had the Cork IT forwards kicked better, the weekend would have been ignited by a shock.
