It’s that time again for Planet Rugby’s Video of the Week, bringing you standout footage you may like. Today we look back at Munster‘s victory over Gloucester in 2003.

The Irish province needed to win by four clear tries and a minimum of 27 points to progress, which they duly did by securing a 33-6 triumph to move into the quarter-finals.

This weekend, Johann van Graan’s men will visit Kingsholm to face the Cherry and Whites where, ironically, you would think that the West Countrymen will need a similar result to help their Champions Cup hopes this season.
