Munster to clear another hurdle in race for silverware

Munster’s preparations for today’s Guinness PRO14 play-off unravelled last night as Keith Earls was ruled out of the Thomond Park clash with Benetton.
Earls had been named earlier in the day for a return to the left wing after a month out with a thigh injury but now joins fly-half Joey Carbery on the sidelines for another crucial knockout game as their team bids to set-up a semi-final trip to Leinster in two weeks.
