Quinn Roux can relate to RG Snyman's predicament better than most as his fellow South African mulls over a torn ACL suffered just months into his new life in Ireland and only seven minutes into his new gig with Munster.

Johann van Graan feared the worst as soon as his gargantuan lock fell awkwardly to the floor from an early lineout during the province's Guinness PRO14 encounter with Leinster at the Aviva Stadium last Saturday.
