Rassie Erasmus: Race for No. 10 jersey is wide open at Munster

Munster boss Rassie Erasmus has every confidence Tyler Bleyendaal is about to hit his straps this season but has warned that the number 10 jersey is very much up for grabs.

Bleyendaal, who qualifies for Ireland ahead of the 2018 Six Nations, has struggled with his goal-kicking early in the campaign and his overall performance was below par in last weekend’s Guinness Pro14 win at Ospreys.

The former New Zealand U20 captain will once again lead Munster from out-half in this evening’s meeting of Conference A’s only remaining unbeaten sides when the Irish province travels to Scotstoun to face Glasgow Warriors, but with JJ Hanrahan returning to full training this week in preparation for a second Munster debut, the options for Erasmus are widening.
