CJ Stander believes the current Munster squad may not peak for another one or two years but they are capable of ending this season with the United Rugby Championship title.

Stander shocked Munster and Ireland when he announced his retirement from the game last year at the age of 31 and returned to his native South Africa to begin a career in the construction industry. But he has not stopped following his adopted province’s every move and he is excited for their future under incoming head coach Graham Rowntree.
