Blow for Munster: O’Mahony and Murray both miss PRO12 final

Munster’s PRO12 hopes have been a dealt a blow with the news that captain Peter O’Mahony and half back Conor Murray will both miss Saturday’s final.

Murray’s absence did not come as a shock; the scrum-half is looking at six weeks rehabilitation for a medial ligament injury. There had been hopes that O’Mahony would recover from a hip injury in time to start, but he failed a late fitness test.
