McGahan Names His Strongest Squad

Tony McGahan has named his strongest possible squad for the trip to Galway at the weekend. All those involved against Clermont last time out are named in a squad that also includes Nick Williams who debuted for Munster last week in the game against Leinster A.

McGahan's squad is reflective of the sort of contest he is expecting. "Connacht are always formidable opponents particularly at home and recent games have been extremely close. Last season it could have gone either way, I think it was a try apiece. They have a solid defence. They have already turned Leinster over and they come into this game on the back of a good Challenge Cup run. So they'll be full of confidence and with the crowd behind them we face a massive task."

Munster: D Hurley, D Howlett, K Earls, K Lewis, B Murphy, L Mafi, I Dowling, P Warwick, R O'Gara, J Manning, P Stringer, M Prendergast, T O'Leary, F Pucciariello, M Horan, T Ryan, D Fogarty, J Flannery, F Sheahan, T Buckley, J Hayes, D O'Callaghan, D Ryan, P O'Connell, M O'Driscoll, A Quinlan, J Coughlan, N Ronan, D Wallace, N Williams.
