Munster were left counting the physical cost of their 16-14 Champions Cup pool defeat to Castres with Craig Casey and Thaakir Abrahams facing potentially lengthy injury absences.

Friday night’s Stade Pierre Fabre defeat to the Top 14 side produced a litany of injuries for interim head coach Ian Costello as Castres extended their unbeaten home record this season to seven games and kept their hopes alive of reaching the knockout stages for the first time in 15 attempts.
