[QUOTE="snoopy snoopy dog dog, post: 311057, member: 13611"] ROG did indeed change direction and bring it down the blindside - down the side where 5 or 6 defenders were faced by 3 attackers including O'Gara! That try has more to do with Howlett's clinical finish and a defender stepping in than with O'Gara's decision to change direction. It was a good pass to set Howlett away though. It follows that if there were more defenders than attackers down the blind side, that there was an overlap on the open side. The end result was 5 points for Munster but that doesn't hide the fact that the outhalf should have gone the other way. Just my opinion of course. Agreed. O'Leary drew in the Northampton defenders all day which freed up room for the Munster outside backs. The scrum also provided a platform from which to attack. It was a good display and Munster are certainly good enough to pick Biarritz apart in the next round. [/QUOTE]
