CJ Stander adamant Munster are still lifted by Anthony Foley

CJ Stander says Anthony Foley is continuing to inspire Munster and the province’s players have vowed to do something special in Foley’s memory this season.

And Stander emphasised they will not lack incentive as they head to Galway on Saturday to take on a Connacht side who turned them over twice last season.

Stander, who notched his 28th try in his 90th appearance in the 29-17 win over Leinster, may have to sit out the trip to the Sportsground as part of the IRFU’s player welfare programme. But the South African native insists the entire Munster squad is driven since the shock death of Foley in October.
