[QUOTE="Groundhog, post: 1065053, member: 50079"] Good article [URL='https://www.irishtimes.com/sport/rugby/q-a-what-happens-to-munster-now-they-have-returned-to-ireland-1.4744213']here[/URL] on it. Don't think its paywalled. In theory the lads' quarantine ends the 11th. Muff may have a more concrete answer, but I would imagine that the squad will still mostly be our internationals and academy lads. We may get guys like Chris Farrell or Roman Salanoa back this week. We will HAVE to fill in a few spots (especially props) from either loans from the other provinces/ bringing in fringe club players who may have played Munster A this season (which probably requires a rule change) OR from asking lads a day out of quarantine to play. Neither is ideal, but I think the lads out of quarantine option is more realistic at this point, as we would have to push for a vote to a rule change, then line up loans and try get them up to speed. Probably better a horribly underprepared player who at least knows the system than a loanee who also may not have significant game time under their belt coming in Barbarians style. [/QUOTE]
