Munster stars will have well-earned break after physical contests, says Van Graan

Johann van Graan believes some of his frontline stars have earned a well-earned break after helping Munster secure a Guinness PRO14 play-off berth with a thumping 45-21 win over Cardiff Blues in Cork on Friday.

Six days after overcoming Edinburgh at Murrayfield to reach the last four in Europe, Munster had enough in reserve to run in six tries at Musgrave Park, four of them in the second half, to see off an in-form Cardiff with play-off ambitions of their own.
