Are the Bulls the only team with a better than 50 win % against Leinster?

Re: Six Nations Player of the Tournament nominees announced

Duhan van der Merwe was the Top Try scorer with Sheenan.
Italy was such a success. They've beaten Wales and Scotland and managed a draw against France. They've lost by a whisker against England 24-27 . Tommaso Menoncello was one of their stars in all this.
