Leinster v Scarlets match thread.

Kanrith

Didn't see one up so I though I might get one up.

Expect Leinster will win handy enough.

Don't think we'll win handy enough. Chop change team and a few heads will still be in the Aviva.

Would be happy with a 3 point win tbh

Hagz

I think we'll put 50 on them.

Maybe not but Scarlets are missing a fair few players and and Leinster do have a strong enough team playing.

Kanrith

Nice break from Jennings there.

Here's hoping.

Who's at FB?? Is that ZK??

Kanrith

Madigan penalty, Leinster lead 3-0.

errlloyd

Its my highly unusual but sometimes necessary flirtation with s4c English commentary.

Unusually they absolutely love leinster.

ThisRegard

English commentary on S4C is a tad boring this evening.

mr. pleasant

first 5 min all scarlets, going through 30 phases or so, close to leinsters line.

but first 3 points to leinster after a madigan penalty

Yeah that's ZK.

errlloyd

Wow, just called kirchener tiquiri. That is awful

Kanrith

Great try by Macken.

A-Train

Get in Macken!

errlloyd

Speaking of kirchener, he cut his hair so I guess we now just call him "bob"

Tox56

Decent try there, shocking Scarlets defence but that's the turn of pace Macken brings

irishbucsfan

Tries are supposed to be hard to score aren't they?

shuffol

S4C English commentary is like something from a nature program.

mr. pleasant

ZK has a new haircut.

He really mustn't have liked the Sideshow nickname...

Supposedly there's over 3 million people in Dublin!

Tox56

Sideshow is just way above this level

The guys on S4C english commentary are gas , "More people live in Dublin that live in the whole of Wales !!!! Thats why the crowd is so big"

sullivlo

Kirchner looking good. Even with a haircut.

Great try by macken.

Good crowd here.

Must be how Leinster attract top quality coaches like Michael O'Connell.

Kanrith

Good try from ZK, looking good so far.

Edit: If he's grounded it...

mr. pleasant

ZK try - pending TMO

leinster well in control.

errlloyd

I think ZK has been class so far...

A-Train

Looks held up?

Yeah held up but Sideshow looking good!

Tox56

Fitzgerald + Kirchner in the Rabo during an international window is just class

Don't think he grounded that mind

Kanrith

Yeah, held up.

mr. pleasant

feck it.

errlloyd

I take back everything I've said about Welsh commentary. These guys are Hilariously leinster biased.

mr. pleasant

looks like leinster want to scrum this over the line.

mr. pleasant

2 penalties from 2 scrums.

Kanrith

Penalty try, this is too easy atm.

mr. pleasant

penalty try

A-Train

Great scrums try 2!

errlloyd

Gwan marty. The talk in Wales is that the talk in Ireland is that's he's the next big thing in Irish scrummaging.

Kanrith

Should have passed that earlier.

Tox56

An example there of how Marty Moore needs to improve his conditioning, left too much space between him and the next man for that break

Yeah he's normally very good round the park but you could see that series of scrums took it out of him.

shuffol

Thats great to see from Macken.

A-Train

Macken playing well in offence and had a good hit shooting out in defense.

Just gone off injured so maybe I'm being harsh, not good for Ross to be on this early though

Rewind one

The S4C english commentator speaking in regards to how healthy irish club rugby compared to welsh says '' the whole of wales only have 3 million people dublin alone has more than that'' i think hes confusing dublin with newyork!!

And he will practically get his normal amount of game time for when he's starting now. Not good as we will need him fit for the next two games.

Absoluvely

The back of Heaslip's bib says H20 (H-squared-zero).
Someone should be ashamed of themself. Basic chemistry.

Try looks good to me!

Tox56

Could be a Cardiff style hammering on the cards here

A-Train

Get in Jack McGrath try 3!
