Denis Leamy believes Munster have hit the ground running in their bid to get their Heineken Champions Cup pool campaign back on track following an opening home defeat to Toulouse.

Munster lost 18-13 to the five-time champions at a foggy and freezing Thomond Park last Sunday in the first of only four Pool B games and with only a losing bonus point to show for an encouraging performance under new management against elite European opposition, the Reds desperately need a victory in England this Sunday when they visit old foes Northampton Saints.
