Munster players go nuts after Simon Zebo is sidestepped by hooker

Munster Rugby players Jean Kleyn and Robin Copeland rushed to slag teammate Simon Zebo after he was sidestepped by hooker Mike Sherry in training.

The Munster rake dropped Zebo with a nice dummy and step off his right foot before fending away the full-back’s arm and heading upfield.

Zebo could be seen smiling as he dropped to the ground and was immediately mobbed by his teammates before he even had a chance to sit up.

Meanwhile Munster confirmed that centre Chris Farrell had undergone surgery and is now in the recovery phase of his rehabilitation after sustaining an ACL injury last month.

The club also revealed that winger Ronan O’Mahony is progressing well from a shoulder injury and is expected to take part in full training this week, while hooker Niall Scannell is continuing his return from a rib injury and will be monitored as the week progresses.

Utility back Andrew Conway is continuing to rehab a knee injury sustained on Ireland duty and will likely remain on the sidelines for the forseeable future.
