O'Connell concerned by Munster’s lack of consistency

Despite boasting a 100% record in this season’s Heineken Cup going into the new year, Munster lock Paul O’Connell has expressed concern over the province’s inconsistent performances.

Yesterday’s 19-13 triumph over the Scarlets left Munster 5 points clear of the Welsh outfit at the top of Pool 1 but the performance was far from a vintage Thomond Park victory with the home crowd forced to endure a nervy last ten minutes of Scarlets pressure.
