    Looks like an exciting run in. Leinster have the reins but can Munster rattle them? What about the Blues , all very exciting , Munster v Leinster in the RDS should be a cracker.

    Munster
    Leinster have enough of a tricky run in to throw it away again however:

    Connacht away: always tight
    Glasgow home: 5 pointer
    LLanelli away loss
    Munster Home vengence, tight
    Edinburgh Away, lets go with form and say loss !!:mad:
    Dragons Home: win
    Dragons away: A test of there steel a win required for the title I would say while Munster at home hockey Galsgow for a tight finish on last day.

    one or two 8-10 pointers between Munster, Leinster and Scarlets will decide it but Leinster have alot of throwing away to do.

    We all know they can do it though :mad:

    Ill still tip them to win it :(

    Thing is are Leinster the only team that can be bothered to win it? Most of the other teams will be committing to their HC q-finals. So its Leinsters to loose really

    Still though Munster will be using their ML games to build up for the HCup match and will be competitive, with the 3 NZers POC J Flannery Quinlan Buckley Stringer more or less available (assuming the injuries aren't too serious) and mad for road during the 6 Nations they could pick up a few points. Also Munster have a game in hand and have Leinster away so could potentially cut the gap.
    Cardiff away is a tough one for Munster on 1st March as is Ulster at home. Munster need 8 points here or its going to be Llanelli or Leinster.
    Llanelli play Cardiff twice and also Munster at home and Leinster at home. Munster have Cardiff away, Ulster home, Connacht away, Leinster away, Ospreys home, Llanelli away, Glasgow home. And a posponed game with Ulster away to slot in .

    Assuming we can win that extra game there's only 4 points between us.That's one loss Leinster and we're neck and neck.No pressure :D I'm hopeful we can do it this year.It's a shame we didn't catch Ulster in January,they seem to have really got their act together now.Just in time for 2 games with them :rolleyes:

    If that was the case and we could not vote for our team, only our neighbours.

    I think Connachr would win it for all the other teams, NOT voting for the others...:D

    You know that's funny, I was watching the games this weekend and I found myself rooting for Leinster even though a loss would be good for Munster's league aspiriations. If Munster don't win I hope Leinster do.

    Munster
    Leinster should win it, as they've got nothing else to play for...

    Cardiff Blues
    Connacht v Leinster
    Ulster v Scarlets
    Munster v Cardiff

    this weekend,
    Wales v Ireland in 2 ML League games!
    Munster v Cardiff should decide who will be slugging it out with Leinster, Ulster can pip the Scarlets at home too IMO

    Munster
    Scarlets have been crap away (bar that ridiculous hammering of Leinster :( ) so Ulster should pip them there. I would expect Leinster to beat Connacht too, so that'll be Connacht's challenge for a HEC spot gone again.

    I'd rather Cardiff won from a Leinster pov, and they are at home, but Munster have a decent shot of it, which would put them in a good position to challenge for the league.
