Graham Rowntree is able to call upon Andrew Conway for the first time since 2022. The former Leinster man has been out with a knee injury but will make his 150th appearance for Munster this afternoon. Frisch with the try. Awful defending from Potgieter and Wright who both failed to touch the ball down.Frisch thinks he's in for a try. It was a brilliant chip over the top that caused chaos and it looks like the two Sharks defenders failed to touch the ball down.Sharks bite back with a super try. Werner Kok gets in the corner after a fabulous break from fly-half Curwin Bosch. Brilliant sideline kick from Bosch as well.
None of the Irish World Cup stars will be in action as they have been given some time off. However, Munster still have a strong side that includes established Internationals Joey Carbery and Andrew Conway. Conway in particular is a welcome return for Rowntree, with the former Leinster star missing much of the last year with a knee injury.
