After Tuesday’s shock announcement that Graham Rowntree is no longer Munster’s head coach, many questions remain. The most pressing: where does the province go from here?

Joining host Nathan Johns on today’s episode of The Counter Ruck is Irish Times rugby correspondent Gerry Thornley. We chat the potential options on Munster’s shortlist and why none of them would be straightforward immediate hires. Is the Munster job actually that attractive? What are the pitfalls as well as the allurements of Thomond Park? Does the new boss have to come from within? And do they need to be Irish?
