John Hodnett latest to fly west Cork flag with Munster
Further evidence of the influence of West Cork rugby in the Munster team has come with the inclusion of Rosscarbery flanker John Hodnett for his first Guinness Pro 14 start — against South African side Southern Kings — at Musgrave Park this evening, kick-off 7. 35.
Hodnett, who established a big major reputation with a series of outstanding performances in Ireland’s Grand Slam in the Under 20 Six Nations Championship last year and as a regular with UCC in Division One of the All-Ireland League through the last couple of seasons, is a product of Clonakilty RFC, and will have another West Cork man, Fineen Wycherley, also doing battle up front against the South African visitors.
