Johnson fancies Munster to prevail

OSPREYS coach Scott Johnson fancies Munster to replace them as Magners League champions — despite Leinster being Europe’s form team.

“It’s a big couple of weeks for Leinster, for sure, but I’d have to make Munster favourites. They came here (to play us) and did a thoroughly professional job. They have a good history with Leinster (in Thomond Park) and I’d be surprised if they didn’t win it.”

Johnson admitted Munster had been too good for his charges, noting: “we weren’t out willed but we were out skilled.”
