    I dont think we do. It's mathematically possible Ospreys could catch us, but they would need 3 bonus point wins in all their remaining games, and to win those game by about 35 point margins and Leinster to lose both remaining games without getting a losing bonus.

    I think it'll finish tonight when Ospreys fail to get a bonus point win over Cardiff.

    Ospreys are on 58 points with 3 games remaining. They can get a maximum of 15 points from their 3 remaining games which would take them to 73 points.

    Leinster are currently on 73 points. 1 more match point would take them to 74 points. The Ospreys cannot reach 74 points.

    I reckon Ospreys will win, Cardiff have nothing to play for and are a side with no future. Ospreys have been much better since getting that idiot Scott Johnson out of there.

    It's a derby match and I reckon Cardiff have pride to play for.

    Was I imagining things or were both Reddan and Boss on playing the latter part of the match?

    If they were what positions were they playing??

    Schmidt is either a genius or mad as a hatter :)

    Genius I think!

    D'arcy had to go off injured so Boss stepped in. He's played centre before.

    Noticed the tackle that resulted in D'Arcy's blood injury.

    Initially thought it was his eye. But looks like it may be a chunk out of his forehead :eek:

    Any update on it?

    Match was a joy to watch, and was very impressed with the the after match interviews from both sides.

    Hard to tell but I thought Mads was sitting at first receiver for most of the second half. Also very flat all the time, with Reid sitting in the pocket most of the time.

    I.E. If we don't get a single point in our remaining games, we still wont be caught, as Ospreys will not be able to reach a mere mathematical target. We don't need the point, as by tonight, we will more than likely be uncatchable.

    Game over. Leinster now out of reach. No point needed....

    Ospreys gave it a good go though, 3 late tries! Bad for Munster.

    I thought they seemed to switch a bit with Madigan playing at first receiver more often than Reid as it went on. Madigan seems to be absolutely loving his rugby at the moment and long may it continue.
