Kidney: It was all about results and not bonus points

MUNSTER took another giant step on the road to Heineken Cup glory at Thomond Park yesterday, but, after being on the ropes a few times, will remember this scrap for a long time.

Munster coach Declan Kidney had indicated his team was not targeting a bonus point and it was just as well, because it never looked like materialising.

Kidney’s respect for Llanelli was well founded: “they’re much better than their record in this year’s competition suggests. “I’m just happy that we have taken eight points from two matches against a quality side. It was always about the results, not about the bonus points,” he said.
