Swansea will put it up to Munster

SWANSEA coach John Connolly comes to Cork this evening seeking a double over Irish provincial opposition.

Ulster met their match at St Helen's last week but Connolly's side will be forced to face a Munster team intent on moving a step further to a guaranteed Celtic League quarter-final place.

Swansea expect a decent amount of support as they trot onto Musgrave Park (7.30) but Munster fans are sure to drown them out. High profile players Mark Taylor, Garin Jenkins, Scott Gibbs and Kevin Morgan are all ruled out for Swansea but, as the Welsh attempt to win their first competitive fixture in Ireland, Munster will point to the fact that over half of the first choice players are either injured or in Russia with the Irish squad.
