Well, as mentioned on the other thread there are 7-8 world class players in that Munster starting 15. The others I don't really know. I would say we will have to weather the storm until the benches start to unload then we maybe able to make ground. However, our defense (especially mid field) will need to be much much better than the the last few weeks or they could be out of sight. Like our front and back rows, great to see West and Alfie starting. COYW (Sm128)
