Ospreys 21-25 Munster. 9 Jan. 2009

Munster outclassed the Ospreys in every department. They were very efficient at the collision and clear-out, creating quick ball for the backs. David Wallace, playing at seven had a good game. He's a strong candidate for the Lions' first 22. The Osprey's played well in patches, their line-out was solid first half but went to bits in the second half. Vaughton was denied a try after some slick back play by a fine covering tackle from O'Leary. Shane Williams had a nice run in the second half that nearly led to a try. All the home side's points came from Hook's boot. Munster never really looked like losing, and tries from Mafi in the first half and O'Leary in the second secured a fine away win to take them back to the top of the Magners League.


My man of the match: Tomas O'Leary
