Andrew Conway: Time for players to stand up for Munster

Andrew Conway believes it time for Munster’s players to follow their leaders’ examples and step up and be counted as the province heads into its final game of a deeply disappointing season.

After an early European exit from the Champions Cup and a league campaign that will leave Anthony Foley’s side as the fourth-ranked province in Ireland, regardless of the outcome of tomorrow’s Thomond Park finale against Scarlets, there is still plenty at stake for Munster in Limerick.

Beat Scarlets and the sixth place in the Guinness Pro12 table it will secure will guarantee top-flight European rugby for a 21st consecutive season with entry into the 2016-17 Champions Cup pool draw.
