An understrength Munster side thrashed the Scarlets 43-13 in Llanelli but their win was soured by a potentially "significant" injury to South African second-row RG Snyman.

Snyman has missed a large part of the past 18 months with a serious knee injury and then undergoing skin graft surgery after getting burned in a fire pit incident. And after limping off in Llanelli, Munster look set to be without their marquee forward signing for another lengthy spell.
