    WITH this convincing 29-8 win over Scarlets at Thomond Park, Munster have moved nicely up the URC table.

    Shay McCarthy touched down in the opening half and the extras from Billy Burns left Munster 7-3 ahead at half-time.

    The home side, however, owned the closing period and tries flowed from man-of-the-match Gavin Coombes (2), Alex Kendellen and Tom Farrell.

    Next up, Munster entertain Edinburgh in Cork on Friday week.

    Munster:Ben O'Connor; Shane Daly, Tom Farrell, Rory Scannell, Diarmuid Kilgallen (Shay McCarthy '15); Billy Burns (Tony Butler '65), Ethan Coughlan (Paddy Patterson '56); Josh Wycherley (Kieran Ryan '55), Diarmuid Barron (Niall Scannell '65), Oli Jager (John Ryan '56), Tom Ahern (John Hodnett '51), Fineen Wycherley; Jack O'Donoghue (C) (Brian Gleeson '40), Alex Kendellen, Gavin Coombes.

    Replacements: Niall Scannell, Kieran Ryan, John Ryan, Brian Gleeson, John Hodnett, Paddy Patterson, Tony Butler, Shay McCarthy.
