Munster skills coach Mossy Lawler said that their Champions Cup showdown with Ronan O’Gara’s La Rochelle has the potential to be a fantastic occasion.

But he said the key thing for them now was to get their URC campaign back on track, starting this weekend when they travel to play the basement side Dragons at Rodney Parade.
