    Game losing call now

    A terrible decision, going to pay for it now with the match, after another scrum pen. Terrible terrible call

    And penalty to Bath resulting from the poor Leinster decision.


  • Registered Users Posts: 45,433 ✭✭✭✭thomond2006


    That's too far away to go for a 'kick to nothing', if that makes any sense!

    That call now looks so so costly.

    It wasn't even a touch and go decision, Sexton has never had that range. 56m....that would be at the range limit of even a big kicker.

    At worst the ball needs to go dead so that the ball cannot be ran back.

    COME ON LEINSTER!!!!!!

    Yeah that always looked at the extreme edge of Sexton's range. Especially in cold damp weather. Poor decision to go for it.

    Suddenly Leinster have a shot at this.


  • Registered Users Posts: 12,393 ✭✭✭✭AdamD


    Utterly pathetic performance

    Too focused on what Bath were doing than what they should have been doing.

    ANd opportunity lost


  • Registered Users Posts: 16,710 ✭✭✭✭Clegg


    Complete failure in systems.

    But to be honest we were second best all game anyway. Set piece demolished and players outdone.


  • Registered Users Posts: 23,822 ✭✭✭✭Larbre34


    Disgraceful lack of organisation and energy again. Chances squandered


  • Registered Users Posts: 12,601 ✭✭✭✭errlloyd


    I think throwing to their second row in a line out we didn't even a lift player for sums it up nicely.


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,153 ✭✭✭A-Train


    Leinster are brain dead,no leaders on that pitch, shocking line out. A lot of them players have to take a good hard luck at themselves, because they are shocking. Sexton what were you thinking???

    Also god I hate watching matches on BT, they have a jinx on us, also BOD really sold his soul working for them, or maybe he is just that bland.


  • Registered Users Posts: 17,321 ✭✭✭✭Utopia Parkway


    Leinster set-piece is dire.


  • Registered Users Posts: 45,433 ✭✭✭✭thomond2006


    The lineout...

  • Registered Users Posts: 24,745 ✭✭✭✭molloyjh


    It's not all bad. That penalty try was very harsh and there was small margins here and there that could have made a difference. The biggest disappointment of all was that decision to go for the posts at the end. That was awful. We just need to keep our heads and build from here. We need to trust the young lads more and they showed that today when they came on.

    Our lineouts have been dreadful all season. The handling errors are just infuriating too. There's no creativity.


  • Registered Users Posts: 371 ✭✭Sean Kinsella


    Absolute dire indefencible rubbish.

    it was the only time leinster had any momentum in the game an they just kicked it, literally, back to Bath.


  • Registered Users Posts: 7,753 ✭✭✭corny


    We look a tired, demoralised side.

    Weird that. Lads should be bursting at the seams this early in the season.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,661 ✭✭✭Crimsonforce


    moc looking like a world beater now

    How dare he take employment.

    McGrath just has to start from now on, if it turns out hes not good enough so be it, but we just cant go on with Boss and Reddan as our two main 9s, that situation has been going on for too long as it is

    I generally always like your posts and opinions but I honestly can't see were you can see or take positives from this match or the season overall. I would have stuck with the kids from the earlier games in the season, some of the regulars are shocking at the moment.

    It's as bad as it looks; out of Europe after 2 rounds and the PT was the correct decision for me; they would have scored in any event.

    We aren't good enough; there it is.

    Still can't believe they went for the posts from there.
