Antoine Frisch returns from injury for Munster’s URC quarter-final clash with Ospreys at Thomond Park on Friday night as the defending champions promote John Hodnett and Gavin Coombes to the starting back row.

Frisch, set to depart Munster and join Toulon this summer in order to pursue his ambition to play for France, missed last Saturday’s 29-24 win at home to Ulster in the final game of the regular season.
