Its not gloating in any manner, they are all facts. Others please add more you are aware of or correct me where I'm wrong:


Most consecutive away wins in HEC - 6


Most consecutive wins in HEC (home and away) - 12


Most consecutive home wins in HEC - 34 (according to SpringPOC)


Most appearences in HEC - Anthony Foley 77


Highest points scorer in HEC - Ronan O' Gara 818


Updated to reflect victory over Cardiff at TP, now hold the overall record for most consecutive wins. ROG scored 15 to take him to 818. Most consecutive home wins moves to 34

BTW I love stats, all future teams that do well and win this thingwill be compared statistically to Munster

There is only one stat that matters and that is number of HEC won. And that record belongs to Toulouse.


I hate stats as they mean nothing! smileys/wink.gif

All the other records , most games won etc. mean what exactly?? we pilloried and laughed at England being chokers for many a year for winning every 6N game except the won that mattered to win the Grand slam year in year out.

Since when is 50 more than 50






Munster have never lost to the same team twice in the HEC.


Although I'd say there might be a few others with that impressive record too.





Toulouse beat us in 1996/7 and 2002/3


Castres beat us in 1995/6 and 1999/00 and 2001/2


Cardiff beat us in 1996/7 and 1997/8 (twice)


Perpignan beat us in 1998/9 and 2002/3


Gloucester beat us in 2002/3 and 2003/4


and I am not sure that list is exhaustive

If I were inclined to be pedantic, I may take issue with your definition/use of the word.


The full list of matches are at the back of Ciaran Cronin's book if you have it. They are also listed on ERC website (http://www.ercrugby.com/eng/31_58.php)so you can check for the correct names of the grounds as well as if there are others like Padova that you may be missing.


While you are at it, you may want to check if Munster hold another ERC record of the lowest attendance at a match (http://www.ercrugby.com/eng/12_622.php).

Most consecutive home wins in HEC - 34 (according to SpringPOC)





That's way off, even our thomond park record stands at only27/28, and the fact is we lost to cardiff back in the 97/98 season in MP (open to correction on the season) so there's no way we can have a consecutive home win record that high.


Elsewhere, from what i can work out, both ourselves and toulouse have been in the same number of semi-finals. 6 by my count

We won a few games in Cork after the one we lost to Cardiff, HEC games were played there until about 2002 or 2003 I think. The 1/4 final game in LR would also count as a home game.
