“Yes, certainly my first Heineken Cup game in charge, but we’ve had a cracking session today. It’s a special competition to the club, certainly heightened our energy today, and our interest today. So far, so good.”
“It’s not been spoken about, that game,” said Rowntree of that epic quarter-final. “It was a special, special afternoon. What we’ve looked at is their current form and it’s undeniable what their threats are and the talent they’ve got in that group. ] What pleased Rowntree the most in those last two victories was “the manner in which we’ve played,” the Munster head coach adding: “What we’ve been doing in training is coming through; intensity, around our attack, but I’ve been pleased with our power game, the maul, both sides of it. There’s a nice blend to our game, a real nice blend to what we’re doing.
After the disruptions to selection caused by injuries and the Emerging Ireland tour to South Africa in a difficult start to the season, Rowntree was able to select contrastingly settled matchday 23s against Connacht and Edinburgh.
