'I believe that my time in Munster was right place, wrong time.' Seán French has been on fire in the English Championship:
THE ENGLISH CHAMPIONSHIP campaign concludes this afternoon and Irish wing Seán French is the favourite to claim the top try-scorer honour after a prolific first season with Bedford.
“We have the license to play from our own goal-line to the other goal-line,” says French, who can also play in the centre or at fullback. “I felt like I had to mould myself into a player I probably wasn’t, if that makes sense,” says French when asked how he reflects on his time with Munster.

They train three days a week, with their schedule beginning in the gym at 4pm, followed by the pitch session. French was used to being in Munster’s high performance centre in Limerick from roughly 7am until 5pm every day, training and hanging out with his team-mates in between.
He still plans to use his Economics degree from UCC at some stage in the future, but French has loved the work. He says it’s one things that has helped him to be much more relaxed than he was in Munster.
