After the game, co-captain Eimear Considine said,

“We set an aim before the game to not concede any tries. We’re happy with that plus the bonus point win is always good.

“We’re looking forward to playing Leinster next week and hopefully three wins out of three which will set us up with a good semi-final spot.”
