Hugo Keenan out, Ciarán Frawley to 15, Harry Byrne onto the bench #LEIvLAR

Brilliant 40 minutes of rugby at Franklin’s Gardens. Hard to tell but Munster may have wind assistance after the break. Lacking punch off the bench but Beirne, Coombes, Ahern, Zebo all starring so far #ChampionsCup #NORvMUN
