Good evening! Bienvenue!
How’re we doing? It’s Gavan Casey with you here and welcome to The 42′s live coverage of Munster’s Champions Cup last-16 meeting with La Rochelle at Stade Marcel-Deflandre.
Ireland’s southern province lock horns with their fellow two-time European champions in the west of France, where Munster legend Ronan O’Gara will hope he can resuscitate La Rochelle’s ailing campaign.
It’s a reunion years in the making and it all kicks off at 5:30pm (live on Premier Sports if you’re looking).
