Richards tips Munster for Heineken Cup glory

Former Leicester Tigers coach Dean Richards has indicated that he thinks Munster may finally reached their promised land in the Heineken Cup this year.

Richards' Leicester side beat Munster in the final of the competition in 2002, a match remembered for Neil Back's infamous interference.

Now Richards feels the Irish side's time may have come. "It may be Munster's year. Because, while they still have a long way to go, overcoming Stade Francais in the manner they did, showed they are truly worthy of a semi-final place," said Richards.
