Munster name newcomer Bowman in side to face Connacht
Bowman, 28, is a surprise inclusion in the side although he has been training with the Munster squad for the last five days as he awaited a work permit clearance.
The Australian international, with 16 caps and a World Cup medal in his trophy cabinet, comes into the side in place of the injured Ireland U-21 international Shane O’Connor, who has a hamstring injury.
