We’ll draw positives from adventure, says Murray

CONOR MURRAY believes Ireland will be able to take plenty of positives from the 2011 World Cup campaign, once the pain of their quarter-final exit has faded.

Despite the gloom surrounding Ireland’s tournament coming to an end, the half-back said Ireland were well set for the future.

“I think the team is in a very good position. We’ve had a good tournament,” Murray said. “Obviously we would have loved to have gone further. We definitely believed we could have done and I’m sure a lot of other people did too.
