Aussies hold off Munster’s late charge
The tourists, coming off back-to-back international wins over Scotland and Ireland, looked like they were in a different class for much of a wind assisted first-half but still could only manage a five point lead at the interval because of a truly magnificent Munster defence.
An early penalty by out-half Mitchell Third followed quickly by a fine try from full-back Adrian Henley put them in a powerful position but after that the home defence tightened up considerably.
