In terms of his own side, Murphy is hopeful that Ulster can build on last weekend’s bonus-point win away to Connacht when they host Munster in Belfast on Friday (19:45 GMT).
Ulster have won five of their seven United Rugby Championship games this season and have scored more tries (33) than any other team, 14 of which have come from in-form wingers Werner Kok (six), Rob Baloucoune (five) and Zac Ward (three).
“It’s the type of rugby we’re trying to play,” added Murphy.
“Getting the ball out to the edges, getting our wingers involved in the game, we’ve got some incredible athletes out there.
“We’re being effective for periods in games, it would just be nice to be a bit more effective for longer.”
Despite last weekend’s loss to Leinster at Thomond Park, Friday’s opponents Munster have made impressive strides in the early stages of Clayton McMillan’s reign, winning six of their eight URC games.
“In some ways, they’ve gone back to some of the DNA they had in the past,” observed Murphy.
“They actually kick the ball a lot more than they have done, but they’re really tough in the breakdown, hard to break down defensively.
“It’s going to be a massive test for us. Their squad is probably a little bit further down the track than we are in terms of the strength in depth all the way through their squad.
“There’s talk about some of their internationals missing but we know that whatever Munster team turns up it’s going to be a very difficult task.”
