Munster A need to win

Victory in today’s B&I Cup clash at Clifton Lane is essential if Munster A are to have a chance of qualifying for the quarter finals.

Although Peter Malone’s charges have played just one and have a game in hand over today’s opponents Rotherham Titans, a home victory would essentially signal the end of Munster’s dreams.

With one win from two, Rotherham are in a reasonable position to clinch one of the three runners up spots from five pools and thus qualify for the last eight. A loss today would be a huge blow for Munster, ten points adrift of runaway leaders London Welsh.
