Lion’s den not quite so frightening for Holley

OSPREYS coach Sean Holley hopes Munster’s Alan Quinlan has played his last game for the province.

In advance of Saturday’s Magners League semi-final at Thomond Park, Holley was effusive in his praise of Quinlan but described the back rower, who will retire at the end of the season, as “a great big pain in the backside”.

“With Quinlan, you always needed a strong referee with three eyes in his head to watch him,” he said.
