Munster set to unveil new forward

MUNSTER hope to add a new second-row to their squad by the end of this week, to add to the three new signings they have already secured for the coming season.

Although unwilling to mention any names, coach Alan Gaffney said last night that the new player he hopes to unveil "will not be a household name, but has been playing a very high brand of rugby."

The new player will join international out-half Paul Burke (ex Harlequins), centre James Storey (ex Neath-Swansea Ospreys) and prop Mike Storey (ex New Zealand), in the panel sooner rather than later.
