MUNSTER head coach Graham Rowntree has made two changes to his team for their crucial Heineken Champions Cup tie in Toulouse on Sunday.
Into the team come John Ryan and John Hodnett in place of Romain Salanoa and the suspended Jack O'Donoghue. The Waterford man received a three-week ban after he was sent off in the first half in last week's win over Northampton Saints.
Conor Murray, Jack O'Sullivan, Diarmuid Barron, Ben Healy and Malakai Fekitoa are named in the replacements for the game at Stade Ernest-Wallon.
The back three remains in place with Mike Haley, Calvin Nash and Shane Daly getting another chance to impress. Antoine Frisch and Jack Crowley are in the centre, while Joey Carbery and Craig Casey renew their half-back partnership.
Dave Kilcoyne, Niall Scannell and Ryan are in the front row, with Jean Kleyn and Tadhg Beirne in the second row. The back row consists of captain Peter O'Mahony, Hodnett and Gavin Coombes.
Munster's game with Toulouse has a 3:15pm kick-off and is live on BT Sport.
MUNSTER: Mike Haley; Calvin Nash, Antoine Frisch, Jack Crowley, Shane Daly; Joey Carbery, Craig Casey; Dave Kilcoyne, Niall Scannell, John Ryan; Jean Kleyn, Tadhg Beirne; Peter O’Mahony (C), John Hodnett, Gavin Coombes.
REPLACEMENTS: Diarmuid Barron, Josh Wycherley, Roman Salanoa, Jack O’Sullivan, Alex Kendellen, Conor Murray, Ben Healy, Malakai Fekitoa.
