[2] Following his performances for Munster A and with the Ireland under-20s, Flannery joined the Munster academy ahead of the 2019–20 season, [3] and he made his senior competitive debut for the province as a replacement in their 2019–20 Pro14 round 12 fixture against Italian side Zebre on 21 February 2020, which Munster won 28–0. Flannery was a late call up to the bench after Shane Daly was injured during the warm-up and Darren Sweetnam was promoted to the starting XV. [4] He joined the Munster senior squad on a one-year contract for the 2021–22 season. [5] Flannery made his first start for the province in their 31–17 win against Italian side Benetton in round 16 of the 2020–21 Pro14 on 19 March 2021. [6]

Ireland

Selected in the Ireland under-20s squad for the 2019 Six Nations Under 20s Championship, [9] Flannery started the wins against England, [10] Scotland, [11] Italy, [12] France, [13] and Wales, as Ireland secured their first grand slam in the tournament since 2007. [14] He was retained in the under-20s squad for the 2019 World Rugby Under 20 Championship when it was confirmed in May 2019, [15] playing in the pool B games against England, [16] Australia [17] and Italy, [18] and the play-off games against England [19] and New Zealand.
