IRELAND INTERNATIONALS Tommy O’Donnell and Donnacha Ryan have come straight back into Munster’s starting team for tomorrow’s huge Guinness Pro12 clash with Glasgow Warriors [KO 7.35pm, Sky Sports].

O’Donnell and Ryan were released from Joe Schmidt’s Ireland camp for the weekend, as was James Cronin, who is named on the Munster bench for the trip to face the Warriors at Kilmarnock’s Rugby Park.

In total, Anthony Foley had made five changes after last weekend’s home defeat to the Ospreys, with sixth-place Munster needing a win against the Warriors to keep in touch with the top four, even if they do still have a game in hand.

Niall Scannell comes into the Munster XV at hooker, with Mike Sherry benched, as Tomás O’Leary is preferred to Duncan Williams at scrum-half. The final change sees the promising David Johnston joining fellow academy player Rory Scannell in midfield, taking the place of the injured Francis Saili.

Former Blackrock College and Leinster underage flanker Conor Oliver, now part of Munster’s academy, is set to make his first competitive senior appearance off the bench, while out-half Johnny Holland makes a welcome return from a long-term hamstring injury.

Glasgow, meanwhile, have welcomed Sean Lamont, Gordon Reid, Tim Swinson and Duncan Weir back into their XV from Scotland’s Six Nations camp, while exciting prop Zander Fagerson returns to take a bench spot.
