A pause gives us our chance and we pounce - Munster, Munster, Munster. The Champions Cup can wait until Champions Cup week.
Have preparations ramped up for those Munster lads? Nacewa laughs but there is little warmth in it. He says:

It's exactly what we would expect from Nacewa and we are more than fine with his attitude. Isa Nacewa came back to win some bloody games. Let him have at it.

Instead of a field or the gym, they were filmed on a Dublin street doing maul drills, while others causally tossed the ball around. It is unclear exactly where […]
