Munster will welcome back a “massive leader” in Jack Crowley for their URC play-off push but Mossy Lawler has confirmed fears that other key players could be miss the rest of the season.

Assistant attack coach Lawler welcome Tuesday’s news that Ireland fly-half Crowley would be available for Saturday night’s visit to Connacht for the penultimate match of the URC regular season campaign, the only one of six casualties from Munster’s previous league outing, a 41-14 derby victory at home to Ulster on April 25.
