That win is a huge endorsement of Cullen and Lancaster. They trusted the squad that was performing in the Pro14 and it payed dividends.

He's 30 years old and has never been a first choice international.

Nobody in that group will be given a chance by Farrell as there are much younger guys with a much higher ceiling.

Jumper

Handy try. Montpelier are such a dumb side.

Porter making a poor cameo in the scrum after a strong international break.

Jumper

Great try.

Guys like Kearney, Byrne, and Ruddock are so good for Leinster at this level.

JvG stumbles at the first hurdle.

The new woke. You can never change. Racist for life. I want to know what Jumper thinks. After all, guys caught taking PEDs are allowed redemption. So you consider the personal use of drugs to be worse than racism and discrimination towards others? Interesting to see where your priorities lie. Peopl...

Jumper

Nothing like a bunch of middle-aged gammon telling a person of colour how they should feel about racism.

Anyone enjoying the delicious irony that one of the reasons that Paddy and Stuart were sacked was because of how it might hurt sponsorships And now we have our sponsors being hauled across the media for their actions that led to Grenfell. Very odd way to think of something that lead to 70 deaths. H...

Are Ireland asking/expecting too much of Ryan? We are expecting him to do everything like a POC or a AWJ, and he's clearly not up to it at the moment. Hopefully its just a run of poor form, because it's extremely worrying when the guy touted to be Ireland's captain for the next decade has been the w...

Jumper

can't subscribe to the Kelleher hype and then again cannot understand the Irish dissing Earls all the time , a classy player imo Kelleher has done very well for a guy who was never really hyped for Leinster or ever put in any fantastic performances for Leinster. He looks a solid option who'll get a...

Jumper

Stockdale went fine at fullback. Spilt one ball, would have created a try for POM if he had a bit more gas , reduced a couple of shoddy passes and managed to make yards and is clearly being used more of set piece to get his hands on the ball, something we desperately need. I'm still not sure he mea...

Jumper

With Hodnett injured, POM's performance at 7 bodes well for Munster. A backrow of Stander/Coombes/POM could be excellent for Munster.

And Earls.

Really happy with how Doris went. The front 5 provided a platform, and the backrow balance was spot on.

Ridiculous that he didn't start last week.

Old lads have been decent. The lads we should be building around, Ryan and Stockdale, are an issue.

Rassie is a big fan of this at Munster if I remember

It's a clear part of the pod structure under Farrell. Most teams of it nowadays.

Jumper

Unlucky for POM. Should have gone to the TMO.

Jumper

POM has been class today. Comfortably the Best player on the field.

Yup. On first watch should have been red.

Doris cramping up. He's been good.

James Ryan isn't a smart player.

How many caps does he have?

89

Jumper

Lovely kick by Stockdale and great gather by Earls.

Jumper

Stockdale slow and out of position after Herring misses a poor tackle.

Jumper

Crazy that a 33 year old wing continues to be Irelands best back.

And then he goes to set up a try for Earls on the wing.

Try came from a great Doris break after Murray picked him out with a smart pass.

Jumper

Brilliant by Sexton, Henshaw, and Earls.

Jumper

Killer can't come back soon enough.

Jumper

No surprise to see Mullet et al defending racism.

Jumper

At 21 Casey is already looking like a guy with 30 international caps under his belt.

Cooney is great in his role with Ulster, but there isnt huge value giving 20 caps to a 30 year old at the expense of younger guys.

Extremely unlikely.

Ross Byrne will be involved despite not being anywhere near the standard required. I'm no huge fan of Burns, but he has been a huge step up on Byrne.

Jumper

Great win by Munster. Would have pushed for a point a minute but for disallowed scores.

Jumper

Conway hasn't been great since the break. That said, up until then, he had been the best back 3 player in the country over the last 24 months.

Jumper

Zebre player pulls a Glasgow and tries to end Casey's season with a late shot to the knee.

That should be red and a long ban, but it won't be. It's an attempted career ender.

Jumper

Coombes' handling and offloading is so so good.
