World Cup winner RG Snyman will not be back for Munster until springtime with the province confirming on Tuesday evening that he will not return for any of the January games.

Snyman, who will be 28 in January, suffered a set-back in his recovery earlier this season but there were hopes that he might finally get back on the pitch over the festive period.
