Brian Walsh expects Munster to click against London Irish as Pro12 looms

Munster assistant coach Brian Walsh hopes his charges will learn — and quickly — from the lessons of two successive pre-season defeats to Grenoble and Connacht.

In advance of Friday’s clash with London Irish at Musgrave Park (7pm), and a Guinness Pro12 opener against Treviso looming, Munster are desperately seeking a performance.

Walsh pointed to the importance of building through phases and performances, and he also craves victory.
