Munster rest big guns for Connacht

Munster will rest Anthony Foley, Peter Stringer and John Hayes for their challenge from Connacht at Thomond Park on Friday night.

Meanwhile Lansdowne will have to see if Adam Magro, Matt Leek and Liam Toland are available for selection after Leinster's Friday night frolics with Ulster.

Angus McKLeen returns from injury to the tight head for Lansdowne's visit to Dungannon.
