Wallace backs Croker for potential cup epic

David Wallace believes Croke Park must be given serious consideration as a venue for any potential Heineken Cup semi-final meeting between Leinster and Munster later this season.

Both provinces face tricky last eight ties against French opposition — Munster welcome Toulouse to Limerick while Leinster must travel to take on Toulon. Should both win they would meet for the third time at the semi-final stage.

“I don’t think it matters where it’s played,” the former Munster flanker told thescore.ie. “It could be played on a green in the middle of a housing estate and I still think it would be an epic match.
