Gaffney’s rallying call

MUNSTER have come out fighting in advance of the crucial Heineken Cup clash with Gloucester at Thomond Park on Saturday.

The squad is still smarting from the criticism heaped upon them after the shocking defeat to the English side at Kingsholm last week, but coach Alan Gaffney has rallied behind his players.

Yesterday he stood firm in support by naming the same 22 for this back-to-back clash, and he expressed confidence that the result can be turned around.
