Simon Zebo chuckles his way through final Thomond Park tunnel walk

Jack O'Toole

Munster full-back Simon Zebo is going out at Munster the same way he arrived at the province; with a big smile on his face.

Zebo made the walk down the Thomond Park tunnel for the last time as a Munster player on Saturday as the province made their way to the pitch for their PRO14 play-off with Edinburgh.

Zebo will move to Racing next season to begin his new life in Paris but before that he will look to leave Limerick with some silverware this season after his side were unceremoniously dumped from the Champions Cup last month.

Zebo will leave the province after eight years at Munster.

He made his Munster debut against Connacht on 18 April, 2010, and scored his first try for Munster against Scarlets on 16 April, 2011.

He has yet to win a major trophy with Munster but he will leave the club as the province’s all-time leading try scorer with 60 tries and potentially more to come if Munster can prevail over Edinburgh.
