McGahan reveals game-time plan

IN what is Munster’s first home game since winning the Heineken Cup in May, Tony McGahan has kept faith with 11 of the side that started in last weekend’s impressive 46-22 win over the USA Eagles for tonight’s sell-out friendly with London Irish at Musgrave Park (7.30pm).

But, according to the new Munster head coach, his frontline international contingent will see game-time against the Exiles and are named on a strong replacements bench that also includes new signing Justin Melck.

Alan Quinlan, however, is out with a slight groin injury.
