O’Meara in positive mood for Sale clash

THERE had to be a scapegoat when Leinster lost to Perpignan in the semi-final of last year’s Heineken Cup at Lansdowne Road.

No matter that Leinster as a team didn't perform on the day, it was Brian O'Meara who copped most of the criticism for his lack of success kicking scores from penalties.

His disappointment on the day was acute, but his costly goal-kicking lapses have long since been forgotten. "It was one of those days, a difficult day for kicking but something I don't dwell on."
