Exciting attacking play by Munster early on. They sweep the ball back and forward across the pitch, feeling out the opposition. The green defence holds strong however, and eventually Laulala knocks on whilst attacking down the right touchline.

Despite the recent weather conditions, the pitch in Musgrave Park seems to be in decent shape. Strong winds but no rain.

Late change for Connacht: McSharry drops out of the centre with a groin injury. He's replaced by Brian Murphy.

Welcome rugby fans to our coverage of this inter-provincial clash between Connacht and Munster. Connacht enter this game seeking a fourth consecutive win, while Munster desperately want to avoid their fourth consecutive loss. They will hope that the return of Munster talisman Paul O’Connell will put a cap on their losing streak. The home team sit sixth in the table and must wrestle with Ospreys and Scarlets for that final playoff seat.

I think Connacht can do one over on Munster tonight. Sweet revenge for Christmas!

Great thanks Aidan
