Newly appointed forwards coach Andi Kyriacou has made it his mission to restore the fear factor to the Munster pack and the return of Peter O’Mahony to the line-up for tomorrow’s trip to Dragons is not a bad way to continue the process.

O’Mahony, whose performances in the Ireland back row against the All Blacks this summer certainly sent shivers down New Zealand spines during a historic Test series victory on Kiwi soil, will return to lead his province in Newport on his seasonal debut. Munster will be bidding to get their BKT United Rugby Championship up and running with a first victory following last weekend’s 20-13 reverse at Cardiff.
