Lee Barron and academy hooker Gus McCarthy will be ready and primed if required to step up and step in for clash with provincial rivals
Rónan Kelleher in race to be fit for Munster clash at Croke ParkJimmy O’Brien suffered a hamstring issue in the first half against Benetton and limped off while Jordan Larmour was withdrawn before the game. Both require further assessment but there was better news in that RG Snyman came through the game unscathed while prop Jack Boyle will train with the squad.
McBryde said: “We had Paul Rouse in to talk a little bit about the history of Croke Park. One of the things I took away from it, it was only a 15- to 20-minute presentation where he went through the history and detail of the place, but he also said, ‘don’t make any more of it than what it is.’ Declan Darcy has great experience of playing there as well.
On the playing front, RG Snyman has made an immediate impression on his new team-mates and the coaching group, culminating in a fine debut against Benetton. McBryde said: “Yeah, I think he’s been brilliant, really good in the group.
