We laid a wreath in honour of our dear friend Greig Oliver in Cape Town this week 🌹

It is our 1st visit to the city since his tragic passing.

Greig made an immeasurable impact on Munster Rugby & we were privileged to call him a colleague and friend ❤️

[Ben Swindlehurst @BenjiSwin]

The whole credibility of the NRL as a comp is called into question when the TMO can’t step in for a forward pass in the lead up to a try 🤦‍♂️ #NRL #shambles

[Ben Swindlehurst @BenjiSwin]

Jessie Kriel lucky with that head shot! Bolt upright and head on head 🤷🏻‍♂️

[Ben Swindlehurst @BenjiSwin]

Wow…a stinger it is not! Kid leads with the helmet and is out cold on impact. Madness of in fact he was let back on…🤦‍♂️

[Progressive Rugby @ProgressiveRug]

Letting this young man back on field after this collision is unforgivable.

Falling without bracing means there is simply no conceivable way a medic could rule out a concussion.

The risks associated with allowing him back on were potentially catastrophic.

[Nicole Cronin @Nic_Cronin_]

A special time, with special people 🦌

embrace the challenge & do something special ❤️

[Ben Swindlehurst @BenjiSwin]

Great effort lads 🙌🏻🙌🏻

[Munster Rugby @Munsterrugby]

Well done to our U18 Boys Schools squad who finished their Interpro campaign (W3 1L) with a 24-14 win over Leinster in Dublin yesterday.

Tries came from Ian Morton, Jonathan Byrne & Bill Hayes while Tom Wood kicked three conversions and a penalty 👏
