Squad Update

The Munster squad trained in UL today in the build-up to Saturday’s game against Leinster in round five of the RaboDirect PRO12 in Thomond Park.

Head Coach Rob Penney and Captain Peter O’Mahony were two notable absentees as both attended the ERC Launch in Dublin this morning.

Paul O’Connell and Felix Jones played their part in today’s session after both showing no ill effects following their return to action last Saturday night against Newport Gwent Dragons in Musgrave Park.

There was positive news on the injury front with BJ Botha (knee) and Conor Murray (toe) returning to limited training today while Ian Nagle (foot) completed his own movement session and is looking good to make a return to full training next week.
