Gerry Thornley: Munster could yet find a pot of gold at end of Rainbow Cup Province still have something to play for, albeit it would be nice to know what exactly Tue, May 11, 2021, 06:00
Two rounds into the Guinness Pro14 Rainbow Cup and it says everything about this hotchpotch of a competition that the protagonists, not to mention the rugby public at large, still don’t know how it is intended to pan out.

As for Munster, with two wins from two chalked up on the board, a date on the deciding day is theirs to throw away. They were good here, particularly Shane Daly, their young winger – although the gold stars were freely handed out. Gavin Coombes had a fine game, so too Dan Goggin, their centre returning from injury. Conor Murray, boosted by yesterday’s news that he was going on a third Lions tour, scored an opportunist try; Mike Haley added a superb score just before half-time. Rory Scannell also crossed for two tries, JJ Hanrahan and Andrew Conway for one apiece. ....
