Magners Semi Squad

Munster coach Tony McGahan will name what is expected to be a full strength squad later this morning for Saturday’s Magners League semi final clash with Ospreys.

The announcement will be made in the course of a Media briefing at the UL scheduled for 11am. The squad trained in Thomond Park Stadium yesterday morning and will complete their preparations tomorrow in Cork's CIT.

Ospreys edged into the play offs thanks to a 75th minute James Hook penalty in Aironi last Friday night but are the the title holders and the last side to win a Magners tie here in Thomond Park.

Tickets sales are reported to be slower than anticipated with less than 50% stadium capacity sold at this stage. Tickets are available at all the usual outlets.
