    You could listen to the Galway bay fm or RTE radio commentary and mute the tv but they'll most likely be out of sync slightly, some people don't mind it but it bugs me so I just put up with the Irish commentary

    Dopey from Marmion. Told to stay repeatedly and then goes offside still.

    Strong defence from Leinster, particularly McCarthy.

    Silly call from Clancy.
    He told Marmion to get onside.
    Reddan puts hands on ball and is tackled by Marmion and then he pings him.

    Can only assume terrible conditions are contributing to decisions not to go for sticks?

    Has to be a yellow for that kick in from the side.

    [edit] Apparently not.

    Blatantly stepping in from the side to kick the ball. That should be a yellow.

    Really stupid penalty from them there at the breakdown and should be a yellow card, really. Straight in the side to kill the ball on a turnover.

    Looks even worse on replay.

    Just a penalty.

    Leinster need to get something out of this pressure.

    Clancy being extremely lenient here. I think that's 5 penalties in the opening 13 minutes including 4 in the 22.

    He's given a warning now. About time.

    Came on here just to post that! It's been a huge weakness in our game so far this season.

    The one against Marmion and Nathan White were very harsh.
    White couldn't roll away as he was trapped.

    He has warned them now.
    Next penalty in the 22 will be a yellow.


    3 points not a great return from leinster from such a dominant position in the first 15.

    When was the last time we had any sort of a backs move when camped on the opposition 5 ? Its like junior level stuff, no other thought in their heads outside of having a big forward try to smash through 2 or 3 players from a yard away . No inventivness at all.
