Munster will need three wins from three to avoid disaster

After a frenetic weekend of old-style inter-provincial rugby, it's time for cool heads all round. On the plus side, were a curtain to be drawn on the Pro12 right now, we would have Leinster and Connacht with home semi-finals in the play-offs and all four Irish teams in next season's Champions Cup along with the Scarlets (Wales), Glasgow (Scotland) and eleventh-placed Zebre (Italy). The latter's involvement is now gone beyond a joke for everyone involved.
