"Toulouse were the team that we always wanted to be like. I think back to watching the European final when they played against Cardiff in 1996."


David Kelly - Irish Independent

...this was a win achieved with not just spirit and resilience of character, but the variety of a gameplan that has slowly taken root over the first four months of the season.


Simon Lewis - Irish Examiner

His ball-carrying included two clean breaks, four defenders beaten, three offloads, one try and one assist.


Patrick McCarry - SportsJoe.ie

The hosts had won only one of their last 13 fixtures in all competitions
