Munster number eight CJ stander is about as boisterous a player as you’ll find in professional rugby.
He’s combative, loud and confrontational player and if you try and disrupt the Munster maul by coming through the Munster side you may lose your jersey in the process.
Exeter lock Jonny Hill knows that you don’t want to allow Munster to get their maul going at Thomond Park and he tried to break up the play by going for the ball before Stander dispatched of him and his jersey in one fluid motion.

Stander compared Exeter to a Jack Russell before Saturday’s game and his words seem to hold up through the first-half.
“The thing is, my dad would say, ‘It’s like a Jack Russell in the dark, you never know when it comes’,” Stander told The Sun.
“So hopefully we can build on that and not that let bite us again deeper into the season.
“A Jack Russell, it bites you in the dark but it doesn’t come from the front, it comes from the back.
“Again, build on momentum and these away performances, get the monkey off our back.”
