Munster are banking on Oli Jager making the same impact as a starter against Leinster as he has already made off the bench and on the training field after the tighthead prop was handed his first start for the sell-out St Stephen’s URC derby clash at Thomond Park.
A month after signing from serial Super Rugby champions the Crusaders, the 29-year-old Blackrock-educated and Irish-qualified tighthead will pull on the red number three jersey for the first time next Tuesday as Graham Rowntree attempts to engineer a first home win in the fixture since December 2018.
