O'Gara to start for Munster

Ireland's Ronan O'Gara, Keith Earls and Donncha O'Callaghan and Auckland import Nick Williams will start for Munster for the first time this season in Sunday's sold-out Musgrave Park Magners League clash with the Dragons (5.05pm).

Coach Tony McGahan has decided to hold new signing Jean de Villiers in reserve on the bench. Captain Paul O'Connell is not included due to a hamstring issue.
