23rd October 2024 By The Editor

Graham Rowntree and Seán O'Brien spoke to the press ahead of Round 6

Hear from Munster Head Coach Graham Rowntree and Seán O’Brien ahead of Saturday’s Round 6 URC fixture against Hollywoodbets Sharks in Durban, 3pm kick-off (Irish Time).

They both spoke about their reflections on the Stormers game from last weekend, look ahead to Sharks on Saturday, as well as how the season has gone so far.

Rowntree discusses the physical and internationally equipped Sharks side.

“We’ve prepared for it, we’ve analysed them, we’ve got some things to fix from the Stormers game which we’ve owned. It’s a big game, there is a Springbok pack waiting for us in the heat in Durban. What gives me comfort is that we have done it before.

It’s about being in the moment and being clinical at those small margins.”

O’Brien also discusses his Emerging Ireland Tour experience as well as how he has found playing both in the centre and on the wing.
