Denis Hurley already targeting next season

After being outplayed from first whistle to last and losing emphatically on the Kingspan Stadium scoreboard, Munster were in no position to make excuses for Saturday night’s Guinness Pro 12 at the hands of an outstanding Glasgow Warriors side.

Denis Hurley, who has done a superb job all season as captain of the side on a number of occasions while settling into the once unfamiliar centre role with aplomb, accepted the realities of the situation but is certainly not despondent about the province’s hopes next season.

“It’s certainly not the end of the world”, he declared.
