Dublin-born Josh Brennan part of Toulouse squad aiming to maul Munster:
HE WAS BORN in Dublin and his dad, Trevor, was an Ireland international but there’s no doubt that Josh Brennan is aiming for Test rugby in a blue jersey.
Josh is on the bench for Toulouse in today’s final Champions Cup pool clash with Munster at Stade Ernest Wallon [KO 3.15pm, BT Sport], with the home side aiming to make it four wins from four and secure home advantage for the knock-out stages. A bonus-point win could even see Toulouse finish Pool B as top seeds.
The Toulouse backs? Decent. Antoine Dupont and Romain Ntamack aren’t the worst halfback pairing, while goal-kicking fullback Melvyn Jaminet is now back from injury. Being able to call on Italy sensation Ange Capuozzo off the bench is quite the luxury.James Crombie / INPHO Toulouse's array of stars includes captain Antoine Dupont. James Crombie / INPHO / INPHO
Underdog status will suit Munster just fine. Peter O’Mahony and co. love little more than upsetting the odds.
