All change for Munster’s uphill task

PREVIEW: Cardiff Blues v Munster, tomorrow 6.15pm (Cardiff City Stadium)

At the very least, Munster need a bonus point at the Cardiff City Stadium if they are to advance to the knock-out stages of the league.

They currently enjoy a four-point advantage over the Blues, but manager Shaun Payne warned yesterday: “If we were to finish level on points with Cardiff on the number of games won rule, that would see them through. We basically can’t allow them to close the four-point gap, it needs to be three.”
