Munster have several new injury concerns ahead of Saturdays crucial interpro encounter with Ulster.
Jean Kleyn will go for a scan on a knee injury he sustained against Connacht. Jason Jenkins suffered an abdominal injury and training and is unlikely to train this week while Chris Cloete is being treated for a neck injury and is unavailable.
Joey Carbery, Calvin Nash, Rowan Osborne and RG Snyman remain on the side-line long term.
Meanwhile, Munster forwards coach Graham Rowntree has committed his future to the province by signing a two-year contract extension.
It'll keep the former Lions and England coach at Thomond Park until the end of the 2024 season and he says it was an 'easy decision' to stay.
Munster's head-coach Johann van Graan is set to move to Bath next summer while senior coach Stephen Larkham will return to Australia to take up a role with the Brumbies.
