Rassie Erasmus looking to balance momentum and priorities
In total, the Director of Rugby has made ten changes from the side that defeated Toulouse in the Champions Cup last week and has included no fewer than six internationals on a powerful bench. However, there is still no sign of a return to action for scrum-half Conor Murray while CJ Stander continues to rehab the ankle injury he sustained against Toulouse and Keith Earls is also rested.
Significantly, however, Peter O’Mahony is on the bench, indicating his badly bruised leg has responded to treatment.
