Re: Leinster v Racing, who will you be shouting for?

Any other team and I’d be behind Leinster, but Racing conducted themselves so well in the aftermath of Foleys death that it’s hard to not want them to win, and I think a lot of Munster fans would be the same. Can’t see Racing winning it, but I hope they make a game of it. https://thumbs.gfycat.com/...
