O’Shea: We’ve nothing won yet

IT’S back to the drawing board for Munster, back to the hard grind in the knowledge that a European dream is over and that they are in danger of finishing the season as also-rans.

But after his youthful side ruthlessly pulled off the rugby coup of the year, Harlequins’ director of rugby Conor O’Shea warned Munster’s next rivals to watch their step: “I would give no advice to a team (Munster) that’s about 15 points clear in the Magners League other than to say that hasn’t happened by accident.”

O’Shea believes they will bounce back, however: “They’re a very good side and our guys were in the dressing room looking to swap jerseys, the full extent of what we’ve achieved by this win will probably sink in later.”
