Joey Carbery will relish Larkham's Munster link-up

Joey Carbery was only turning 12 when Stephen Larkham brought one of the great Australian careers to an end in 2007. Munster’s new senior coach had already made an impression on the kid from Auckland by then.

A former head coach with the Brumbies, Larkham was dropped controversially from Michael Cheika’s Wallaby coaching ticket at the start of the year, paving the way for his move to Munster where he will assume the role of senior coach under Johann van Graan.
