'I have made my thoughts about this club widely known throughout my time so far'

Munster forwards coach Graham Rowntree has signed a two-year contract extension with the Irish province.

Munster said that Rowntree will remain with them until at least June 2024.

Rowntree, who has previously worked with England and the British and Irish Lions, joined Munster after the 2019 World Cup.

“I have made my thoughts about this club widely known throughout my time so far, and for me and my family it really has been an easy decision – a non-decision if truth be told,” Rowntree told Munster’s official website.

“We’ve put down roots here and have no desire to move anywhere else.

“I know there will be coaching personnel changes at the end of this season, but from where I’m standing I know that we have everything in place for continued development and success.”

Munster’s current head coach Johann van Graan will join Bath later this year, while senior coach Stephen Larkham is leaving for the Brumbies in Australia.
