When Munster humbled the Wallabies

The Munster team who beat the then world champions Australia at Musgrave Park in 1992 will be feted tonight. Barry Coughlan caught up with captain Terry Kingston and goalkicker Charlie Haly to relive the excitement of the day

For Terry Kingston, there was a lot more riding on this match than just helping Munster to win. It was a personal challenge he had to stand up to in order to repay the faith shown in him by the provincial selectors.

Kingston was surprised to be named captain just a few days after being excluded from the Irish panel. Greystones and Leinster hooker John Murphy was given the international number two shirt to play Australia, while Keith Wood, reserve to Kingston with Munster, was chosen as back-up.
