Given that there's only one or two stadia that even occasionally hold a rugby match that are any bigger, this would be true of virtually any team. And whilst Leinster have played at Croke Park (just the once?) before, that was back in 2009, so not desperately relevant Anyway the attendance target t...

It'll likely be the strongest team/23 we've been able to put out all season, but it'll be a big ask to win in Loftus against an in-form Bulls team. It's a pity they left all their Boks at home last week.
