Need to rewind back to after the Souths game where there were calls for Munster to be dropped to reserve grade :D

Not that I don't like Jacks but Hughes just brings more to the team.

And this from the CEO;
"Our focus is now on Billy’s wellbeing. The Club will always put the health and welfare of our players at the forefront. This is why the conservative decision has been made to rest Billy for this Sunday’s game however we look forward to seeing him back to his best when he returns to the field"

The bolding is mine, and for Cameron, 350th and all?

I suspected that as well but if that were the case, he wouldn't have been named in the first place.

This is what I heard today as well

Also Fusi wasn't at the captains run today might be looking like he might not play (don't think it's injury restate I think it might be baby related)

And I also heard Joe might be dropped as well
