Munster Lose Four Players

Munster Lose Four Players

Munster have announced that four of their players, Ciaran Parker, Sean O’Connor, Darren O’Shea and Brian Scott will no longer be a part of the club’s set-up.

It appears that Parker and O’Connor are heading to the English Premiership while it is, as yet, unspecified where O’Shea’s next move will be.

Meanwhile, it seems that Brian Scott has been forced into retirement on medical grounds. The prop has been plagued by a foot injury since 2018 and it does not appear to be improving.

”I’m devastated to be finishing my career prematurely,” Scott said, “The last 15 months have been incredibly testing and unfortunately I did not come out on the right side of it.

“Throughout my career I have been supported and helped by many people. I would like to thank my family, my girlfriend, my friends, my team-mates and the coaches who have guided me from the beginning. They have all helped me personally develop and I can’t thank them enough for that”.


Munster head coach Johann Van Graan said:

”I want to wish Brian all the best for the future and thank him for everything he has done for Munster. It’s a difficult time for any player to have to finish early through injury, but Brian should be very proud of everything he has achieved in representing the province.

“I would like to take this opportunity to thank Ciaran, Darren and Seán for their time with the province. We wish them all the best with their future rugby careers and wish them continued success.”
