Conor Murray, RG Snyman, Calvin Nash and Malakai Fekitoa have all been passed fit for Munster's BKT United Rugby Championship clash with DHL Stormers on Saturday (5.30pm).
The quartet missed the team's semi-final victory over Leinster with head injuries but have been included in the 30-man travelling squad for the season finale in Cape Town having "completed the return to play protocols".
Ben Healy and Jean Kleyn are due to complete the protocols this week and travel with the squad, which lands in South Africa on Tuesday.
Stormers have been handed a boost with the return from injury of internationals Deon Fourie and Marvin Orie.
The Springbok pair had both been doubts for the decider in Cape Town but have been back training with the squad from last week and declared fit for the final.
Fourie, who became the oldest Springbok debutant at the age of 35 when he played against Wales last year, has struggled with a hamstring injury over the last three weeks, picked up on his return after one month absence caused by a fractured eye socket in the European Champions Cup against Harlequins on 1 April.
The utility player offers options at hooker and the flanks and has developed a reputation as the Stormers’ 'fetcher’, regularly turning over possession in the loose mauls.
Orie, who has won seven caps for South Africa at lock, had been battling with a shoulder injury.
Andrea Piardi [above] has been announced as the referee for the match.
The Italian has enjoyed high-profile appointments over the past two seasons in the play-offs where he refereed two knockout games in 2022 and most recently Munster's quarter-final win over Glasgow.
Piardi's match officials team will consist of Mike Adamson [SRU] and Craig Evans [WRU] as assistant referees.
Ben Whitehouse [WRU] will serve as television match official.
Meanwhile, Munster have confirmed that Thomond Park will host a double-header against the Barbarians on 30 September.
The women's team, current inter-pro champions, will kick off proceedings at 2pm against the Barbarian's women side, who made their first-ever appearance against the same opposition in 2017 at the Limerick venue.
The men's game kicks off at 4.30pm.
