Good call imo.

Some very strange ones there. Hendo in. Surprised by aki and pleasantly surprised by Conan.

Hardly the big news.

I hope the all french final isn't a dour 6-9 game or something at least. Going for Toulouse as they have more French players. Leinster just had a lot of average performances out there. Half backs were distinctly average. McGrath can do better with a better 10 but this is a level too high for Ross. ...

DiscoHips D'Arcy

I still thought Conan had a very good game but he was probably the only one or close to it that kept levels up. Keenan as usual seemed to do most things right and Healy actually looked abrasive enough in the loose. I was shocked to see toner get 70 mins and in fairness its Bairds first full season. ...

Commiserations leinster types.

La Rochelle much better than I thought.

DiscoHips D'Arcy

Best of luck Leinster. I have you winning by 10.

At least he’s only on a one year deal, you would assume he’s going to be a stopgap for someone better after that. Either that or he’s actually decent and merits another 1/2 years Although think it’ll be hard to recruit anyone from the Saffer sides now The only person I'm intrigued by atm is Deegan....

The issue I have with Nakarawa is basically last night in microcosm. We start off carrying well passing the ball quickly and exploiting space and shifting Leicester about. We get a lead and then automatically start to kick the leather off the ball and despite Stockdales best efforts we simply refuse...

In terms of the maul URH it's done really well in the Pro 14. Went nowhere last night and I can't recall if it has worked against a really serious team this season. Saints maybe and connacht but I'm thinking would our maul be potent against the top sides in Europe? Not sure. Positives this season fo...

Disappointing to see Ulster shit the bed so comprehensively when they were playing so well. It's like they all came out for the second half having listened to different team talks. Persistent boxes, no chaser or competition. Gave up on keeping ball and being physical. Some seriously salty Ulster fa...

Bunch of bottlers. How to guarantee defeat from the jaws of victory. Coaches need questions asked too. Stopped playing rugby in the second half. Didn't try anything. Players like stockdale who didn't even try the chip until the game was gone and it bloody worked. Too much risk averse bullshit Poste...

On the whole I'm not sorry to see the back of Peel but I'm unconvinced by Soper. I'd love to have got Carolan

Nakarawa Is not the answer to ulsters problem next season Need an absolute beast of a lock from somewhere to go alongside hendo props bigger issue, marty moore offers nothing. Was very disappointed in Nordi he was anonymous. It's all in the pack. TOT is a good prop. What Ulster need is Ronan Kelleh...

Feck it. I assumed things would be open by August.

Shame to see Lowry dropped and looks like he is covering outhalf. Who is going to be marking Nadolo that is going to be a huge test!! Baloucoune. I'd like us to get the ball to Baloucoune early and in space. He's has made a prick out of much quicker wings than Nadolo. Not sure I'd be so keen if the...

For all the talk of a 2nd string Leinster side there was still the core of a seasoned side there. Any team with Ed Byrne, Porter, Ryan, Baird, ROl, Lowe, Kearney, Larmour and Ringrose m, most of whom are seasoned internationals shouldn’t be getting a trouncing like that. Ryan really let himself dow...

Mcgrath had hip surgery last week apparently. Doesn't bode well you would think for a guy over 30

It was a Munster lineout Toland. Leinster stole it

DiscoHips D'Arcy

Munsters discipline has probably cost them 5 or 7 with archer and shlpuld have handed leinster 3 there. Some might not like the current amount of cards in the game but another ref would have gone red and yellow for those two incidents.

Was just about to say that neither side needs a challenge with Joy in the box.

Fair point

He's the incumbent on the Irish wing.
At fullback, where he played last night

Nobody on here want him at 15 in fairness.

The bookies have Leinster as 5 point favourites but the papers are predicting a Munster win. I would say this has been the case in many of the recent matches between these two.

Keenans position is under more threat from Mcilroy than it ever will be from stockdale. Mcfarland has it right as usual in his post match stuff but he needs to now be selecting with a view to dropping those who have failed him in tight games repeatedly

That was shite, not great subs from Dan, killed momentum. Don't give a shit about the subs to be honest. That's for next week . There's guys like Kane, our locks, Warwick, Burns, shanahan and Jones to a slightly lesser extent that aren't good enough to see these games out. Even Timoney went from be...
