Tyler Bleyendaal a major doubt for Munster’s Pro12 semi-final clash

Asked if Bleyendaal was a doubt for the semi-final,” Erasmus replied: “Yes, yes, yes, yes.”

Munster’s night of celebration at the Guinness PRO12 Awards was tempered by the revelation that fly-half Tyler Bleyendaal is a serious doubt for the play-off semi-final against Ospreys in 12 days, writes Simon Lewis.

On an evening in Dublin when Rassie Erasmus was voted Coach of the Season by his peers after guiding Munster to the top of the PRO12 league table and back into the semi-finals in his first year as director of rugby, six of his players were also named to the Guinness PRO12 Dream Team.
