thehighground

Well done Leinster - well deserved win - great support as well - you out did us in every department today. Pleased for BOD & D'Arcy in particular. It would be awful if those two in particular never won a Heineken Cup.

I'll be shouting for you all the way to Edinburgh & back again (with the Cup hopefully!) Dose that make me a Meinster?

Podge_irl

I'm gonna take this opportunity to say **** YES!!!! Really sorry I couldn't be there. Had tickets and all. Alas, the lure of exams overuled everything. Great game though, Leinster were incredible.

Maybe you should delay the smugness lecture until you've actually won the Heineken Cup at least once

chupacabra

Fairplay leinster. Comprehensively outplayed munster. Fully deserved, hope you go on and win it.

I know. I really really really really really really hope that wasn't a once off.

JohnMc1

It was a great game. I'm glad Leinster won.

For people complaining about "Spoilers" If you didn't want to know the result and came on the Rugby forum anyway I do not feel sorry for you. You made a personal choice to come to the forum so now you have to live with it if you were "spoiled".

gcgirl

Leinster really deserved to be in the Final after that match The Defense was immense and seem to have the hunger for it on the day!! Fully Deserved!!

lol, are you taking the mick?

Quick phone the internet and all major news organizations and tell them not to be talking about it until ur home and watched it lol

Great match.

spank_inferno

Congratulations Leinster.
You all played very well today and deserved your win.

I thought you were done no favours by the ref though.
Munster just had too many men having an off day.

Now please finish the job!

Who would we rather face in the final?
I'd rather take leicester I think (but not by much)

Wetbench4

Well done lads, eventhough ye were droppin like flies, ye outplayed us. Good luck with the cup!

ozchick

Thanks for the result here (haven't actually seen the score, but that doesn't matter, read some comments!) and my hubby is just watching the replay now and doesn't want to know the result :rolleyes: He reckons Leinster won't make it :P

Won it twice :P

leeroybrown

Congratulations to Leinster. They surprised us all buy outgunning Munster in most facets of the game today and lost nothing through the two injury replacements to key players.

Great match.

it's a bannable offence on soccer forum, i'm just saying some people like to browse boards at work and they might see this thread pop up in the latest posts on the home page.

i know i'd be quite pissed off if i had planned to watch it after work.

sioda

Well done gotta echo for a team who dropped like flies and kept going yee did great. Hope injurues aren't too severe to keep conto or fitz from the final

Onward to the final and a win and we'll swap it for the magners next year hopefully

Enright

well done Leinster
The better team on the day won, personallly i think Leinster were hungrier and had a lot more smarts, Munster looked like a tired team

anonymous_joe

Yay.

Fair fúcks to the majority of Munster fans who were gentlemanly (gentlewomanly?) in defeat. T'was good to see.

DJ Hafez

Let's keep the trophy in Ireland!

Stick_man

Well done Leinster, there can be no argument about the result. Thought Leinster were fantastic all over the park. As a Munster man I am gutted but you have to give gredit where its due. Everyone from one to fifteen was immense and I will be cheering you in the final.



P.S the only gripe if I can have one was the ridiculous decision of Stuart Barnes to give BOD the MOTM, Rocky Elsom was by some distance the finest player on the pitch but Barnes found the need th reaffirm his lions prdictions by saying BOD outplayed POC today. I thought BOD had a great game but I thought POC had a great game in a team that didnt play well and their was no need to play poor rugby politics.

theKramer

Congratulations to Leinster. More than deserved it on the day. It was a testament to how well ye played that I knew by 50 minutes gone that Munster were not gonna win it. That defence is awesome. Really hope ye go on to win it now.

Drummerboy2

Great win for Leinster yesterday. Always knew that Munster hadn't a monopoly on passion.

Micky Dolenz

Well done Leinster (So where did ye get the Munster playbook from?;))

Have to say a big thanks to all the Leinster fans I met last night, we had great craic and ye were gracious winners.

Best of luck in the final, ye deserve it.

dreamer_ire

Well done Leinster, you were worth it from 1 - 15 yesterday. We never got started but had we it would have been a cracking game. Elsom for me was MOTM, he was immense and I think the key to stopping us playing and giving the Leinster backs a great platform.

Best of luck in the final... hope you bring the Cup back home.

Diabhal Beag

I speak for all of Connacht when I say that I knew Leinster would win and well done.

Munster hard luck to ye but it could be worse, you could be in the European Challenge Cup every ****ing year.

Great game sadly due to one too many before hand i had a slight case of Schadenfreude , apologise to folk round section 324 Hogan stand

Insect Overlord

Congrats Leinster.
I was pretty pissed off with the result yesterday, but I've come to terms with the better team on the day deserving to win

I look forward to cheering them on as an Irish team in the final.

Carol_1985

Well done Leinster, from a disappointed Munster fan! The best team won! Will be cheering ye on in the final!

Same here.

Will be shouting for you in the final.

Benny Cake

Fair play lads, ye have allot to be proud of after yesterday, the fans were brilliant and that definitely helped the team..... an element of complacency has crept into the munster support recently and you would have to question the interest level/pride of the w*nkers that walked out with 15 mins left. I left 3 mates in the big tree because they couldnt get tickets (all 3 playing rugby in limk having supported munster for 10 years) to think that these morons got tickets over geuine fans is very frustrating!!!!

anyway rant over, ill be supporting ye in the final so best of luck....

I hope not. I'd be a Lunster through and through if that was the case. So long as Munster is your first preference you're grand.

That's bloody Nigel Owens for you. The guy is useless. There were loads of obstructions, be it on tacklers or ball chasers, through-out the game and he never did a thing about it. I was livid with him for the first 60. After that I started to settle down as I began to think we might actually win it. But even with 10 mins to go I wasn't putting it past Munster to come back.

Yeah BOD said after he was embarrassed to win the man of the match because he felt one of the forwards should have gotten it.

Great game, great day and a big thanks to all the Munster fans I was talking to after. Ye were gracious in defeat and a good bit of craic. Here's hoping we bring it home in 3 weeks and make Ireland the undisputed home of northern hemisphere rugby!

Cateym

Well done to Leinster. The tails were well and truly up from first touch of the ball. I said to some mates earlier in the week that I had a bad feeling about the match and that Leinster had had a belly full of Munster this, Munster that and things were ripe for an upset. I was told to go away out of that!! I am glad that they have finally stood up to be counted. Now please let it not be a once-off, bring that cup back to Ireland.

MG

Well done Leinster, really played well and deserved to win.

Really disappointed but must remember that days like that have fashioned the Munster spirit too.

The_Kew_Tour

Well done to Leinster the best team won so no complaints..

I think Munster were too cocky this will bring some those boys back down to earth fairly quick..

Fishtits

Well done Leinster. No argument whatsoever, the best team won.

With that victory comes great responsibility, its expected that the HEC trophy will reside in Ireland this year, this is your task.

Having watched the epic Cardiff vs Leicester match, Leinster will have to be at the top of their game to deliver it. If they play well they are more than capable of doing it.

They've got themselves where they want to be. Now deliver the goods.

Hard ask at the first attempt. Go for it guys.

Jilm

Well done, Leinster! It was a great occasion to experience and I'll be cheering for you in the final!

Hopefully the result won't be decided in a penalty shootout.
