The win, by a team that was more youthful than experienced, was a positive and, despite the wet, windy conditions, they produced some decent passages of play. Even when Erasmus made wholesale changes in the second half, there was a good balance to the Munster play.

“Some adjustment had to be made because of the weather and the way I would describe this would be to say it was a solid start, not a great one, not a bad one, but a solid one. Overall, I was happy, particularly (happy) with the defence when called upon,” said the coach.
