Munster name squad for Glasgow trip

Neither Paul O'Connell nor Ronan O'Gara are involved this weekend. O'Connell suffered a slight back strain in training while O'Gara is still slightly troubled by a knee injury sustained in the latter stages of the World Cup. However, Kidney is quite confident that both will be in contention for a place in the squad for the game against Edinburgh on Saturday week.

Also included in a Munster squad for the first time this season is Barry Murphy while there is a return to action also for Anthony Horgan who retired injured (hamstring) in the game against Cardiff Blues.

Munster: J Hayes, F Pucciariello, M Horan, T Buckley, F Sheahan, J Flannery, M O'Driscoll, D O'Callaghan, M Melbourne, D Leamy, J Coughlan, A Foley, D Wallace, A Quinlan. P Stringer, T O'Leary, P Warwick, J Manning, L Mafi, R Tipoki, K Lewis, B Murphy, A Horgan, B Carney, I Dowling, S Payne.
