Munster supporters will not need reminding their team has beaten Leinster once already this season but Jack O’Donoghue knows landing a precious URC double over the defending champions at Thomond Park on Saturday is another challenge altogether.

The back-rower was part of a Munster side which delivered a commanding 31-14 victory over their derby rivals at Croke Park on October 18, a win which, despite the protestations from inside the southern province’s camp this week that this match-up is just another fixture, was celebrated with gusto on the pitch at the full-time whistle.
