Stereophonics provide icing on the cake for happy Cork crowd
Musgrave Park (Virgin Media Park) rarely bows to visiting Welsh rugby teams. Only a 2008 Welsh victory here over Ireland's Under-20s springs to mind. Saturday night, however, before these psychedelic, riff-tastic dragons we stood in ovation and then we bowed with gratitude. They start at 9pm sharp. One suspects that they'd have kicked off earlier but for the Munster Hurling Final going into extra time. This is exclusive subscriber content. Already a subscriber?

Ulster add to prop depth by bringing in familiar faces ahead of new season
After the departures of Corrie Barrett and Andrew Warwick, the province have added to their depth ahead of Richie Murphy's second season in charge with two players that are familiar to the head coach already. Twenty-four-year-old Crean has already played for Ulster having joined them earlier this season as injury cover, making two appearances, and will now make the transition on a permanent deal, while McGuire was part of the Ireland Under-20s Grand Slam winning side coached by Murphy in 2022. McGuire, 22, who has made eight senior appearances for Leinster but has played the majority of his rugby for UCD at All-Ireland League level, joins Ulster directly from their Academy, with the tighthead prop signing his first senior deal. Meanwhile, Crean, who is predominantly a loosehead but can also cover hooker if necessary, is another Irish qualified option despite having represented England's Under-20s in the past and will challenge Eric O'Sullivan and Callum Reid for game time. 'We are delighted to be bringing in both Rory and Sam this summer. Both are talented props at good age profiles to develop as players and add competition to our squad,' commented Ulster's general manager Bryn Cunningham. 'Rory is a big, physical tighthead prop who will be pushing hard for his opportunity to play more senior rugby. 'Richie knows him well from Ireland Under-20s and we think he is an exciting prospect, who is eager to kick on under Jimmy Duffy. 'Sam, after a brief stint earlier this season on loan during which he really impressed the coaches, can hopefully hit the ground running and really challenge both Eric and Callum for the number one jersey.'
