Munster remain dependent on a handful of star players, even as coaching structures under Clayton McMillan create opportunities for younger players to emerge. Munster's European form has traditionally differed from domestic performances, but a damaging result in Belfast on Friday night will force urgent response. The team faces an immediate stern test away to three-time winners Toulon next Saturday. Toulon have endured about a decade of turmoil but now look resurgent and dangerous. The visiting side will be highly motivated and ready to exploit any Munster vulnerabilities.
