The player, who had to let a November call-up from Farrell pass him by after a head injury, actually presented with symptoms after that Castres game. Munster have made eight changes to the side that fell short of Castres last Saturday. Alex Kendellen (ankle), John Hodnett (thumb), Edwin Edogbo (failed HIA post-match on Saturday), Tom Ahern (neck) and Calvin Nash (neck/shoulder) are all unavailable. McMillan, as he must, sounded confident about the prospects of Munster atoning for that this time having been “missing” three weeks’ ago. They face a Dragons side showing signs of life under Filo Tiatia who he knows well from New Zealand.
