RG Snyman: Nearing a return after suffering an injury in his debut last August

Graham Rowntree whetted the appetite of Munster supporters desperate for the return of RG Snyman from long-term injury by describing the giant South African lock as looking “fit, big and scary”.

The Munster forwards coach was reacting to the province’s squad update issued earlier on Tuesday when the 6ft 9ins Snyman, who ruptured an ACL on his Munster debut last August, was slated for a possible return to full squad training next week having progressed to the “final stages” of his rehabilitation programme.
