Munster Team Talk Thread - Beirne After Reading

A comedy of errors at times but f@#k me - what a game,fair play to Munster!

Can we keep Bleuler please?

good win. Too many errors and a lot to work on.

Mans like a Terminator!

An English team with stars on the jersey being sent packing home under lights on a Saturday in January, same as it ever was!

A performance full of dog and fight. Loads of handling errors. Good set piece but little penetration in attack. A lot of good and some bad from Crowley. Murray vital, Haley poor, Coombes some monumental plays, Beirne inspirational in the second half.

Leinster fan here, thoroughly enjoyed that match from start to finish. For me both Farrell and Wycherley were two outstanding performances this evening. They both came up with massive moments throughout the match and just kept their team ticking over.

However, did anyone ever explain to Murray or whoever else decides to play the ball from the ruck that your supposed to fire it to the breadbasket? Not at the head, above the head, too far in front etc. etc. Ruck after ruck it was painful to see those passes, it only takes the advantage way from the attacker and gives it to the defender. At this level they really need to fix that.

Otherwise that was a pure grit and determination win. Great to watch.

22 handling errors by us, 11 by them. It was scrappy no doubt but I'm sure that ball was like a bar of soap and so many contestables put up.

I've felt in recent seasons that we're a warm weather team with our attacking play, I'd back for a good percentage of those passes sticking come April/May

BOOKMARKED

Saracens were efficient enough but extremely limited.

Once Munster reduced the error count in the second half, they looked pretty comfortable and well worth the win.
