ALL CHANGE FOR JOHANN

MUNSTER coach Johann van Graan insists there is no question of the Reds underestimating Ulster.

That’s despite making 14 changes to the side which went down to Racing 92 last weekend in the Champions Cup semi-final.

Centre Sammy Arnold, who joined from Ulster two years ago, is the only player to retain his place.

“It’s not that we are going into this game half-heartedly,

Munster are playing at Thomond Park, it’s an Irish derby,” said van Graan

(above). “We said we would make changes to the team but it is still very important and we will go flat out to put in a good performance and win the game.

“We will stick to our process, get through this weekend, see where we are injury-wise and see who we play next week.”

It will be a big day for hooker Mike Sherry, who has overcome a series of injuries to make his 100th appearance for the province – more than eightand-a-half years since making his debut.

And van Graan has handed the captaincy to the popular Limerick man (left) for the occasion.

Sherry will be joined in the 100-cap camp by loosehead prop James Cronin, who has chalked up his century in five years.

Ireland sevens star Shane Daly is on the bench and in line to make his senior debut.
