The rugby gods have conspired to give with one hand and take away with another as the province's defence coach digested the news that Shane Daly and Oli Jager had been added to the injury list

As far as injuries are concerned, Munster have been putting out fires all season long and the flames are continuing to flicker ahead of the resumption of their URC campaign against Edinburgh in Cork on Friday night.

With seven games remaining of the regular season, the province had hoped for only good news in terms of key players returning to action for the run-in to the play-offs. There was some on Tuesday with the announcement of Jeremy Loughman and Alex Nankivell’s returns to full training and potential comebacks at Virgin Media Park this weekend.
