Taylor delivered a man-of-the-match performance in an unlikely win, as the Munster side played most of the game with a numerical disadvantage

“The highest”, the 25-year-old said simply when asked to rate Sunday’s 33-22 win over Terenure College at the Aviva Stadium when he landed seven from seven for an 18-point haul that earned him the man-of-the-match award. “I think the 12 of us who were on the pitch at that time just had to really dig deep. There was acres of space for Terenure to attack and to be fair, they did. They spread the ball as much as they could but our catch-up defence was top-notch, I must say.
