Kilcoyne keen to hit the ground running

Dave Kilcoyne will re-enter the Munster fray on Friday, eager to carry renewed Ireland momentum into the new season.

After a successful summer tour to Argentina, the loosehead prop is set to make his seasonal debut at Thomond Park against Zebre.

The 25-year-old will rejoin a Munster team looking to build on their opening victory of the Guinness Pro12 campaign on Friday in Treviso with a first home win.
