Munster’s Jack Crowley said Saturday’s 31-14 United Rugby Championship win over rivals Leinster was “not about individual performances” after he starred in his side’s win at Croke Park. <\/p>\n
In a game widely viewed as a direct shootout between Crowley and Leinster’s Sam Prendergast for Ireland’s fly-half spot in next month’s autumn Tests, the former shone and was named man of the match. <\/p>\n
The 25-year-old, however, was not interested in individual plaudits as he praised his team-mates and coaches. <\/p>\n
“It’s always special playing in Croke Park with the tradition of the GAA and what it meant to Munster coming up here,” Crowley told Premier Sports.<\/p>\n
“It’s not about individual performances. It’s about the plan the coaches gave us and it’s about the hard work that went in with the lads all week.<\/p>\n
“That’s what it’s about; how you can come together as a collective and say you’re going to deliver on a plan and then actually go out and do it. That’s the most pleasing thing. <\/p>\n
“[I’m] massively proud to be able to front up with these lads and get over the line. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Munster’s Jack Crowley said Saturday’s 31-14 United Rugby Championship win over rivals Leinster was “not about individual performances”…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":223566,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[567],"tags":[64,63,760,85],"class_list":["post-223565","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-rugby","tag-au","tag-australia","tag-rugby","tag-sports"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/223565","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=223565"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/223565\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/223566"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=223565"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=223565"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=223565"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
