Munster boss Graham Rowntree has freshened his matchday squad as the URC champions go in search of an eighth league win in a row by making five changes for Friday’s visit to Edinburgh in the penultimate round of the regular season.

Munster, third in the table with two games remaining before the end-of-season play-offs next month, will travel to the Scottish capital on the back of six bonus-point victories from their last seven, including last Saturday’s 47-12 derby demolition of Connacht at Thomond Park.
