Friday’s Pro14 fixtures saw a trio of easy victories as the Cheetahs, Leinster and Connacht all won by big margins.
The Cheetahs and Leinster continued their flying starts to the Pro14 seasons with emphatic victories on Friday.
They both remain unbeaten in Conference A, the Cheetahs putting Munster to the sword with a 40-16 win while Leinster thrashed Edinburgh 40-14.
South African side the Cheetahs only led 12-9 at the break but a second-half blitz ended the game as a contest, with Rhyno Smith rounding off the win after Dan Goggin crossed for a consolation score for Munster.
