77mins Bulls look to have gone over under the posts but the referee is saying he was driven over, and he is consistent with a decision from the first half where Munster were denied with the same kind of play. 79mins More resolute defending by Munster to keep the Bulls out. A winning start to the season at Thomond Park for Munster and looked comfortable throughout until they dropped off a little having secured the bonus-point fourth try.

Bulls crash to second consecutive URC loss against motivated ... (News24)

Munster played the conditions well to beat the Bulls 31-17 in their United Rugby Championship (URC) match in Ireland on Saturday evening.

The Bulls did well not to concede any points in the time he was off. Instead, the visitors scored a try of their own when flank WJ Steenkamp received David Kriel's inside pass close to the line. A spell of 10 minutes camped 5m from the Munster try line ended in a turnover and the game as the Bulls crashed to their second consecutive away loss.

Bonus point for Munster in badly needed Bulls victory (RTE.ie)

Graham Rowntree's side produced their most rounded performance of the season against the Vodacom Bulls, securing maximum points in a 31-17 win.

A loose Bulls kick found its way to Carbery on the wing, with his chip back infield seemingly posing no danger to the defence. Munster were getting a firm grip on the game, and as the minutes went by, the passes started to stick. And while the execution still looked to be eluding them, they were facing a Bulls side who were equally sloppy. Thankfully for the 12,218 in attendance at Thomond, it was. The early energy was good. And for the first time this season, so too were Munster.
