Peter O'Mahony cleared to play for Munster against Edinburgh

Peter O'Mahony has been cleared to play for Munster in the province's PRO14 clash with Edinburgh at Thomond Park on Saturday.

The Reds skipper was sent off after being shown two yellow cards by ref Sam Grove-White in Munster's thrilling victory at Scarlets last weekend, both under Law 9.11 - which states that players must not do anything that is reckless or dangerous to others.

The Judicial Officer, Sheriff Kathrine Mackie, Scotland, found after referring to the methodology in the Disciplinary Rules and the application of mitigating and aggravating features, that the sending off was sufficient. 

Munster will reveal today the results of the latest round of PCR testing at the club that took place yesterday, after one senior player tested positive for Covid-19 at the start of the week and six other players were put into self-isolation.
