Murray Kinsella Reports from Stade Pierre Fabre MUNSTER WILL TRAVEL home from Castres today having suffered a worrying injury toll during their Champions Cup defeat to the French side last night.
“You saw Craig’s, Craig’s is pretty serious,” said Munster interim head coach Ian Costello last night. Advertisement Abrahams suffered his shoulder injury in an illegal tackle by Castres number eight Abraham Papali’i that was sanctioned with a penalty. The South African prop was forced off just after the 20-minute mark meaning Kilcoyne had to dig deep on his return from a year on the sidelines through injury. Kilcoyne was replaced in the closing minutes due to cramp.
“He’s in the dressing room now absolutely fine. We took him off to bring Jack into the game, nothing to do with that knock.”All in all, it was a tough night for Munster on the injury front.
