Johann van Graan satisfied as players commit to Munster cause

Munster coach Johann van Graan believes that his squad’s recent contract extensions mean that Munster’s hand will be stronger than ever going into tomorrow’s extremely testing clash with the Scarlets in Llanelli and for the remainder of what promises to be an demanding programme of matches in the PRO14 and the European Champions Cup.

“I have said it before, if players stay it means they are happy and believe in what we are doing,” says van Graan. “Great teams have great depth and I believe you can never rely on two or three players because then you can get an injury. It is great to have the players staying with us at Munster.”
