Ill-discipline killing Munster momentum

Munster’s quick fixes

Asked last week to reflect on last season’s shortcomings in his side’s biggest games, the knockout defeats to Saracens and Scarlets, Munster director of rugby Rassie Erasmus said: “If you don’t implement the things you learned, it was only a beating, it wasn’t a lesson learned.”

The weekend’s PRO14 derby loss to Leinster will have given Erasmus an opportunity to address some fresh lessons after another painful defeat at the Aviva Stadium.
