Kerr Debut in Galway ?

Munster new boy Simon Kerr is expected to make his debut when Alan Gaffney’s side take on Connacht at the Sportsground later in the week.

Simon Kerr arrived in Ireland yesterday and will be introduced to his new team-mates later today while it is expected the former Queensland Red will feature at some stage in the game against Connacht next Friday afternoon, (August 23rd), a game which will have a 3pm kick-off.

Meanwhile, Leinster opened their season last Saturday with a game against Bristol Shoguns at Longford Rugby Club. The Matt Williams coached Celtic League champions, with tries from squad newcomers Des Dillon (pictured) and Shane Jennings, went down 21-17.
