Anthony Foley plays cool ahead of Ravenhill showdown

Given Matt O’Connor was fired as head coach by Leinster and Neil Doak is filling the role at Ulster until the arrival of Les Kiss, one might have expected Munster’s Anthony Foley to be displaying signs of pressure in the build-up to Saturday’s Guinness Pro12 final against Glasgow Warriors at the Kingspan Stadium, Belfast.

Silverware in his first year in the job would surely cement Foley’s position but until victory over the Scots is achieved, nothing seems assured.

If Foley is feeling even a little uneasy, however, he was not showing any signs at Thomond Park yesterday.
