Munster ring a few changes for Ulster clash
As a team searching for an improvement on the performance against Connacth last week, McGahan has ringed a few changes to the Munster 15.
Earls makes way for Hurley to return at fullback, while Jerry Flannery returns to the front row having been withdrawn from the side to face Connacht last week at the 11th hour. So too marks the return of Rua Tipoki
