Leinster grand slam

I've ordered it, it has highlights of all the pool games, QF and SF (incl the usual Sky Sports after match interview with MC etc).

Obviously has the final (in full), has the Sky Sports footage from after the game (short interviews with players after the circle of honour etc) and possibly has the semi in full too...

Well worth the cash I reckon, if for nothing else, you've got all the bits you want to see from the Heineken Cup campaign on the one DVD and can just sit back and enjoy

Probably worth a watch alright but I doubt it tapped in to the national psyche in quite the same way as Munsters first Heineken Cup.

went into HMV today and got a copy and had it signed by jackman, wright and sean. However I also got my photo taken with Leo the Lion and the Heineken cup (yes I was like a kid at christmas after the photo)

truthfully I would say it is going to be awful but hey it will be a great souvenir and I already have a copy of the HD stream of the final anyway

Do Leinster or Leinster fans care if the HC win 'tapped into the national psyche'?

I wont - I just want to have the the whole lot on the one (or two?) disk(s) - esp the group games as well!


It'll beat watching bits on youtube all the time!

Got it today and had Sean O'Brien, Stan Wright and Jackman sign it.

Stan Wright was a total gent, took time to speak to a few kids and was very patient with them...

it was funny cause at one point at the end a group of girls where having there picture taken with Sean and they had jackman taking the photos for them and I was left wondering why they didn't get photos with both players and then I remembered oh ye young teenage girls may have a different agenda of who they have their pictures taken with

I met Sean O'Brien and Jackman at Tullow rugby club with the Heineken Cup and got picture taken with Sean (Jackman had gone off somewhere), but while I was waiting, you should have seen this girl, in a mini skirt, hair done, savage blonde, make up to the nines, deffo the local hotty around town, coming up to Sean and asking for her photo and playing with his medal around his neck, flirting her ass off....I was just thinking "you lucky b@stard!!" haha

That guy does well for himself with the women from what I've seen when he's out with the tullow boys in carlow.

Grand Slam. The People's Republic of Leinster enter into some national competition that that we dont know of?

I heard they done the triple, they won the World Series and The Intercontinental Rugby Elite Tournament as well which is some achievement.
As a Munster man though, I was very happy to see Leinster win The Heineken Cup and came close to shedding a tear. It's kinda like your kid brother coming first in 100 metres at the school sports day or watching your son cycle his bike for the first time with no stabilisers.
Congrats to the boys in blue!
