My first look at Zebre this season, and in some ways I can see why they are the higher-ranked of the two Italian Pro12 outfits, but in other ways I can see why they’re ranked second-to-last overall. Plenty of aggression on show from both sides, but very little skill - Munster will be disappointed not to have capitalised on an early Chisholm try but still just about kept ahead. Leinster must target 9+ points from the two February meetings with Zebre.
