Former Munster legend Paul O'Connell has confirmed he will not be in the running for the position of Munster's new head coach. The search for a replacement continues after Graham Rowntree's departure, with forwards coach Andi Kyriacou also leaving.
The province have been searching for a new head coach since parting ways with Graham Rowntree last month.
“No, I have no interest in it. Certainly in the short-term anyway. I just hope they get the right man.” “So, that has been frustrating because the lads are good. When we give them quality ball, whether it’s the forwards or the backs, they have been good with it. I think lineout pressure across the world has increased, but we can certainly be a lot better than we have been.”
“Against Fiji, it was much better. Izzy started and he did very well. The defence did very well in the air. That’s been a big strength of ours and we enjoy that part of the game.
