Munster win but sweat on Francis Saili

Munster 21 London Irish 15: Munster produced a top drawer second-half performance as they put London Irish to the sword in front of an enthusiastic attendance of 5,208.

However, it was a black night in terms of injury with the impressive Francis Saili sustaining what appeared to be a serious head injury in the 65th minute. It led to a delay of 20 minutes after the livewire Kiwi centre received treatment before being stretchered off and taken to hospital.

It was such a pity because Saili had contributed immensely to Munster’s success, scoring a try and doing brilliantly in defence and attack.
