MUNSTER HEAD COACH Clayton McMillan has made eight changes for Friday night’s United Rugby Championship clash with Dragons at Virgin Media Park.
Among the most notable will be the senior debut of back-row Seán Edogbo, capping a significant week for the family after his brother Edwin was called up to Ireland’s Six Nations squad.
In the backline, JJ Hanrahan, Dan Kelly, Ethan Coughlan and Mike Haley all take their places.
Captain Diarmuid Barron starts in the front row, while Oli Jager takes his place among the replacements having come through the head injury protocols.
