"The smell of nostalgia off ya!"

2011 marks the last time Munster Rugby won some silverware, and only three of the match-day squad from that day are still active. Munster face Stormers in the 2022/23 United Rugby Championship Final, this weekend, and will be hoping to get the job done after three previous final defeats over the past decade. For our quiz, we want you to name the starting Munster XV from that 2011 Magners League final. We are giving you FOUR minutes to get the job done. No doubt, a couple of names may catch you out, so go for the ones you are confident with and use that time wiselty. Full names or just surnames will suffice. Good luck!
