Front Five 10.01.16

Start your day with five eye-catching egg-chasing quotes & links from around the ruggersphere.
 
Quinny is obviously much more qualified than I am
to comment on what happened to Munster in Paris
though there’s not a whole lot more I’d add anyway
 
 

"This has been going on a while now. They’re on the back of a win last week, we gave them the credit. They came out this week and couldn’t back it up."
 
 
Sean Farrell - The42.ie

“It is maybe different when you actually cannot put your finger on what lost you a game. We made a few mistakes in key areas and couple of great chances to score and just did not capitalise on them”
 
 
Richard Mulligan - Belfast Newsletter

With Leinster young guns Ross Byrne and Nick McCarthy directing operations from half-back, the students extended their winning streak to six games and pushed seven points clear of Clontarf.
 
 
Sunday Independent

The Munster of old would have pulled together, drove on and would have forced a win. They would “stand up and fight”. Today they simply imploded.
 
 
The Loose Head

...in true rugby tradition the two sides were not going to let a bit of rain get in the way of their Saturday afternoon, even if a giant puddle resembling a swimming pool did begin to emerge on the pitch.
