Wednesday, 1 September 2010 13:45Marcus Horan and John Hayes have been included in a strong Munster squad for the Magners League tie against Aironi Rugby in Musgrave Park on Saturday, kick-off 7.30pm.
Speaking about their opponents ahead of the weekend clash, coach Tony McGahan said: 'They are certainly an unknown source, very different to Benetton Treviso who really have kept the same squad over the past three/four years.
'Aironi on the other hand have started from scratch. They've made a huge amount of signings and made their intent clear by signing a very experienced forward pack, Bortolami Perugini, Ongaro, test match players with a lot of experience.
'So they're sending out their message of where they want to be with regards to the Magners League and sending a strong message to what they're going to base their game on.'
