Murphy not bitter at squad role

13 January 2007
O'Sullivan has opted to give the same side that struggled so tortuously against Namibia a chance to redeem itself in Saturday's second clash with Georgia and Murphy knows patience is key.
"For the guys who aren't getting a run it's difficult because everyone wants to play. But what we can we do?" he said. "We have to work hard in training when we play against the guys that are starting, but we also have to make sure we're in shape if we do get a shot."
He added: "We just have to remain positive. This is a team effort and we have to try to do our best as a team.
"You never know what's going to happen. It doesn't look likely that some of us are going to see a lot of game time. But anything can happen.
"We have to just keep training hard with a view to ensuring that the guys going out are well prepared."
