Graham Rowntree has urged his Munster players to cherish the special moment facing them when they make history playing at Páirc Uí Chaoimh on Thursday against South Africa A.

The challenge for a young and injury-hit side is a steep one after a shaky start to life under new head coach Rowntree, who has strived to expand the province’s gameplan and approach to training since succeeding Johann van Graan during the summer.
