Munster enjoyed a good night at the office as they grabbed a bonus point win over Connacht at Thomond Park.

Tries from Billy Holland, Simon Zebo, Duncan Casey, Andrew Smith, captain Denis Hurley and Keith Earls gave them a 42-20 win in their Pro 12 clash.

Connacht got tries on the board in the second half when Miah Nikora scored 12 minutes from time and Shane O'Leary followed up 10 minutes later.

Jack Carty's penalty had Connacht in an early lead, but Munster took control as soon as Holland got a try in the 12th minute, although Anthony Foley's side did not get the rest of their tries until after half-time.
