O’Sullivan’s patience pays dividends

ONCE again, a born and bred Munsterman came into the team in time of need and did the business at Thomond Park yesterday.

Just as Darragh Hurley proved his mettle in the recent Heineken Cup games against Cardiff Blues, John O’Sullivan came up trumps in yesterday’s Magners League clash with Leinster at Thomond Park, when pressed into service at number six in place of the suspended Alan Quinlan.

And nobody was more pleased with the Traleeman’s performance than his captain Paul O’Connell.
