Munster hopeful of Snyman and Haley returns 

Forwards coach Andi Kyriacou yesterday said Snyman's potential impact on Munster’s fortunes could be huge, both physically and metaphorically.

Munster are hopeful they can get the most out of RG Snyman’s remaining time with the province, starting with a potential comeback against Scarlets in west Wales on Friday night.

Graham Rowntree’s squad resumes its URC title defence in Llanelli and hope to have both South Africa lock Snyman and full-back Mike Haley back in their ranks for the first time this season as they bid to emulate last season’s late run to the grand final and a first trophy in 12 years.
