No fresh injuries for Munster ahead of derby

The Munster medical team have reported no fresh injury concerns ahead on Saturday’s RaboDirect PRO12 interprovincial clash with Connacht at the Sportsground (5.15pm).

The positive injury news provides something of a silver lining for Rob Penney and his coaching staff who saw their team slip to third in Pool 1 after Sunday’s Heineken Cup defeat to Saracens.
