RG Snyman and Jean Kleyn’s World Cup triumph with South Africa is set to give Munster a massive lift when the second-row duo return to the province, Mike Prendergast believes.

Munster’s start to their BKT URC title defence has started without the core of the first XV which lifted a first trophy in 12 years with a Grand Final victory over the Stormers in Cape Town last May.
