Castres want to prove their Champions Cup doubters wrong against Munster at Stade Pierre Fabre on Friday, according to returning prop Will Collier.

He knows one strong performance won’t come close to overturning Castres’ reputation as perennial Champions Cup underachievers, especially following their 38-8 loss at Northampton. But he said players and coaches had long planned a run on two tournament fronts this season, aided by the competition’s format.
