Leinster win over Munster most satisfactory of the season for Leo Cullen

Leo Cullen will take just as much pleasure from this hard-earned victory over Munster as he would from a rampant bonus-point win. Maybe even a little more.

When it comes to beating their old rivals, it usually takes hard graft rather than razzle-dazzle and although Ross Byrne, Hugo Keenan and Jordan Larmour supplied a little of the latter for the winning try, there was an awful lot of the former to lay the platform for this 13-10 come-from-behind PRO14 derby win in Limerick on Saturday.
