'This time last year we came unstuck, there was too much of a void between games so when the opportunities arose to play the Crusaders and another prestigious club such as Quins I jumped at it really.'

Munster may be fielding a mix and match side of varying experience for tonight’s friendly at Harlequins but Graham Rowntree will not be hiding his desire for a meaningful return for his team at a sold-out Twickenham Stoop.

Munster head to south-west London looking to maintain further momentum during the Guinness Six Nations window following a similar friendly against Super Rugby champions Crusaders at Pairc Ui Chaoimh on February 3.
