Erasmus faces Cheetahs from native South Africa

Munster boss Rassie Erasmus comes up against the Cheetahs from his native South Africa in rugby’s Guinness PRO-14 today.

Ian Keatley starts at out-half ahead of Tyler Bleyendaal.

The Cheetahs lost 42-19 at Ulster in their season opener but Erasmus is sure they’ll improve as the campaign goes on.

Kick-off at Thomond Park is at a quarter-past-five.

Meanwhile, Ulster look to build on that win when they take on Benetton in Treviso at five-past six.

And Connacht will be hoping to bounce back from their opening day defeat to Glasgow when they host the Southern Kings at twenty-five-to-eight.

The Galway hurling panel are guests of honour at the Sportsground.

Last night Leinster registered a bonus-point 37-9 win over Cardiff at the RDS.

Head-coach Leo Cullen says there’s still plenty more to come from his side.
