No Keenan, Ryan or Ringrose for Leinster. But still should have enough. Looking forward to it. Northampton are a very good team. Always love watching Lawes play...absolute beast. Have to say I don't think Ryan is a loss, and Osbourne looked really good. Keenan- yeah that's a big loss deffo. It's a ...

No POM? That's downright offensive. All those years out on the wing for us, you'd think they'd show some respect. Looks like a heavy bias towards Irish voters.
