Quotes corner

Munster's Niall Scannell: "It is a great chance of redemption this weekend that you don't ordinarily get after losing a final. Sometimes you've just really got to dwell on it and do a pre-season.

"But yes, we are in a bit of a corner now.

"I'm sure Toulouse know that, and equally we know that we are dealing with one of the superpowers of European rugby coming over here with some of the best X factor in the world looking to do the same.

"So, yes, we are certainly after putting ourselves in that scenario and we are definitely going to come out swinging.

"I think no-one would expect anything different from us."
