"Scrum-half says Leinster players have received some stick from their Munster peers in camp but says it is 'fully deserved'"
"The roles were reversed during the first day of Ireland camp on Monday, as the five Munster players included in the squad earned the rare bragging rights over their 22 Leinster counterparts."
"Sure, Munster beat Leinster in the 2023 URC semi-final, yet last weekend's bonus-point win at Croke Park was even more impressive considering their rivals were locked and loaded - unlike a couple of years ago when Leo Cullen decided to rotate his team amid their Champions Cup run, which also ultimately ended in failure."
Leinster players received criticism from Munster peers in camp and that criticism was described as 'fully deserved'. Roles were reversed on the first day of Ireland camp as five Munster players in the squad earned rare bragging rights over 22 Leinster counterparts. Munster previously beat Leinster in the 2023 URC semi-final. Last weekend's bonus-point win at Croke Park was considered more impressive because Leinster were at full strength. A couple of years earlier Leo Cullen rotated his team during the Champions Cup run, and that campaign ultimately ended in failure.
