Forward march on three fronts

The Heineken Cup has been ticked off, next up is Munster in Saturday’s Magners League final and then all Leo Cullen has to worry about are his nuptials next week, as he tells the Irish Times Gavin Cummiskey.

"The scrum resurrection is already ingrained in Irish sporting history. But it was dealt with so quickly at half-time, when the pack gathered around scrum coach Greg Feek’s laptop, that Leinster were “ready to go back out nearly five minutes early”.

“Once the talking was done, which was literally a couple of minutes, we were ready to go. We were waiting at the door just dying to get back out there. I was starting to go, in the tunnel, when we said, ‘hold on, hold on’ as the teams were supposed to come out together but we just went on. That was the feeling – we just needed to get out there.”

"Of course, the real challenge now is to summon up enough energy to wrestle the Magners trophy from Munster’s grasp.

"Another 40 minutes worth reviewing is their second-half display in Limerick on April 2nd."
