Squad Update | Preparations Begin For Toulon

The Munster squad have started preparations at the HPC ahead of Sunday’s Investec Champions Cup clash against RC Toulon at Stade Felix Mayol (1pm Irish time, live on Premier Sports).

Munster are third in an extremely tight Pool 2 after the opening two rounds. Bath lead the way on six points with Castres, Munster, Toulon, and Edinburgh all on five points apiece.

On the injury front following the game in Belfast on Friday night, John Hodnett had minor surgery on a thumb injury and his return to play date is to be confirmed.

Alex Kendellen will undergo a period of rehabilitation with the medical team for an ankle injury and his return to play date is to be confirmed.

Alex Nankivell is fit to train after a knock on Friday.

There is good news for Oli Jager (head) as he returns to full team training with his availability to be determined later in the week.

In player news, Mark Donnelly has returned to the HPC after spending the past three weeks on loan at Ealing Trailfinders, playing three games in that time.
