Andy Farrell named as temp consultant for Munster

Farrell will take up the role immediately and will support Munster's Head Coach Anthony Foley for the next four months, on a part-time basis. Farrell was recently appointed as Ireland's defence coach. "Andy's gardening leave prevents him from coaching in the international game at this time but he has agreed to an advisory role working with Anthony and his backroom team," says David Nucifora, IRFU Performance Director.
