Munster Rugby issues squad injury update

THE Munster rugby squad members are on a down week following last Friday night’s United Rugby Championship bonus point win over Scarlets.

The Munster players will return to their High Performance Centre base at UL on Monday next to begin preparations ahead of the URC Round 16 clash against Glasgow Warriors at Thomond Park on Saturday, March 25, 5.15pm.

Munster Rugby report that their South African World Cup winner RG Snyman, who made his first appearance for the province since October 2021 when coming off the bench as a second half replacement, came through the bonus point win with no issues.

Elsewhere, hooker Niall Scannell (shoulder) and Academy prop Mark Donnelly (knee) have both undergone scans and will begin a period of rehabilitation with the medical department.

There were seven Munster players in AIL action for their clubs at the weekend.
