Foley back to beef up Munster’s League challenge

MUNSTER captain Anthony Foley is back at the helm for tonight’s Magners League encounter with Glasgow at Hughenden, 7.30pm.

Foley is eagerly awaiting his return after a “frustrating” spell of 17 weeks without a game. It’s Foley’s first match since leading Munster to Heineken Cup glory last May, even though he has been immersed in training camps with Ireland.

“I can’t say that I’ve had too much rugby,” said Foley yesterday. “If anything, it has been a little frustrating — it’s probably the longest period of under-exposure I have had since I started in senior rugby back in 1992.”
