Blow for Munster as Horne rejects lucrative offer

Australian centre Rob Horne has rejected a lucrative contract offer from Munster and will remain with the New South Wales Waraths.

Media outlets in Australia reported last night that Horne turned down an offer of $800,000 (€562,000) over two seasons so he can re-commit to his club and further his international ambitions.

The news is a huge blow to Munster following their early European exit.
