Johann Van Graan facing Paris poser for back row, says CJ Stander

CJ Stander believes Johann van Graan will have headaches finalising his back-row trio for next Sunday’s all-important European Champions Cup game against Racing 92.

Munster travel to Paris in possession of a four-point lead over the French side in Pool 4 but are braced for a stiff challenge at the brand new, ultra-modern U Arena.

It can be safely assumed that Stander, who captained Munster to an encouraging victory over Connacht at the weekend, will continue at No. 8 against Racing with Peter O’Mahony returning to lead the side from No. 6.
