Munster’s season is at a crossroads barely a third of the way through the campaign after they were thumped 41-24 by the Sharks in Durban.

It was Munster’s fourth defeat after six rounds of the 2024/2025 United Rugby Championship and it will require some extensive improvement to get back into the competition from here.
