Newport Gwent Dragons braced for fiery Munster effort

Newport Gwent Dragons director of rugby Lyn Jones expects to be on the end of a red-hot reaction from Munster.

While Anthony Foley’s men suffered a rare Thomond Park defeat to Connacht, the Dragons themselves were on the end of a Murrayfield mauling against Edinburgh — as four yellow cards condemned the Welsh side to a 32-13 defeat.

Munster have not lost back-to-back league games since the end of the 2013-14 season, and Jones has been busy strengthening the Rodney Parade defences in preparation for the wounded Irishmen.
