Watch Munster Vs. Emirates Lions In Round 7 URC Action
Munster Rugby hosts the Emirates Lions in Round 7 of the United Rugby Championship.
Munster Rugby play its first league game since the departure of head coach Graham Rowntree at the end of last month.
After only winning two of their first six URC fixtures, Munster is in 12th place in the table going into Round 7 and has a fair bit of ground to make up.
But it won’t be easy against the Lions of Johannesburg, who have won four of their five games to lie in fourth spot. They'll play at 2:35 p.m. on Nov. 30.

Munster back row forward Jack O’Donoghue, who starts on the blindside flank, commented: “It’s an incredibly important game. There is no secret where we sit in the table. We’ve worked hard on certain areas we needed to improve on, and I hope this weekend we will be able to show we are heading in the right direction.
"The Lions are an incredible team. We know how deadly they are off unstructured attack, with the way they play off turnover ball, and they are a real threat around the breakdown. It’s going to be a really big challenge for us.
"We can’t dip our toe in. We have to dive straight into this next block of games and face it head on.”
