Munster head coach Matt Brown said the physicality of their clash with Connacht on Saturday sets them up perfectly when they return to Dexcom Stadium in Galway next weekend to take on Leinster in the final of the Vodafone women’s inter-pro championship.

Munster, already through to the final, started with 13 of the side which hammered Ulster 62-0 the previous week, and despite ousting Connacht by 47-12 in the end, Brown felt it was a great preparation for their showdown with Leinster.
