Johann van Graan saw Munster sign off on their first seven-match block of the season with their 100 per cent record intact and praised his side’s variety in attack as they put Zebre to the sword at Thomond Park on Monday night.

The eight-try, 52-3 bonus-point victory sent Munster 16 points clear at the top of Guinness PRO14 Conference B in the province’s final game before the start of their Heineken Champions Cup pool campaign at home to Harlequins on December 13.
