Murray is lethal close to the line so they decide to put on O'Leary . lol

Not often one player alone can cost you a game. Healy knock-on and subsequent brain fart might just do it.

Munster passed up the chance of a kick at the posts from inside the 22 to level the game. I'd like to think that was a vote of confidence in the ability of the team to convert the line out. I fear it was a vote of no confidence in Keatley.

You idiot

mansize

sloppy tap and go

beertons

No way. What a let off.

Madness to go for that.
McGrath back on for the last scrum now is a bonus too.

Munster hand possession back to Leinster, and Leinster will surely now ease to the victory they deserve

BBDBB

Well done Leinster, we didn't deserve to win it

I think I'd understand a conversation between two drunks speaking the Alaskan dialect of Yupik, more than I understand how on Earth Leinster won this game...

Billysays no

Dave kilcoyne, what were you thinking

Dreadful Match. Poor refereeing . Munster making the same mistakes they make every match.

chippers

Healys tackle looked fine to me. arms out the whole time. difficult to get a wrap on at that speed

He was thinking that Leinster deserved to be top of the table and he was the instrument of that fate. :P

Please let this be the last season we see keatley in red, he's had more then enough chances

Fair play to Leinster defence at the end, but jesus that win was there for us.

O'Leary was getting ready to replace Zebo who looked like he had to come off

My main memory from this game will be the weird use of the subs benches. Why was Holland (who was kicking well) taken off for Keatley (a complete lottery at the tee, not to mention the dropped pass, the penalty for holding on, the grubber kick to nothing)? Sexton subbed with about 3 minutes left. And how far has the Cian Healy star fallen?

A draw would have been a fair result. In saying that Munster had one-off the ruck white-line fever, the bane of Irish rugby, ignoring overlaps at the end. Dunno who got MOTM but it was Murray for me.

Glasgow are moving nicely up the table, they might be a shout to retain their title.

Get in but a terrible match! Saying it all season Leinster are worse with the internationals in the team!

I know a few punters who like to back a draw in Leinster, Munster matches given how tight they tend to be. Thankfully I didn't follow them on this occasion, or Dave Kilcoyne would be firmly on "the list"

Whose call was it to replace Johnny Holland with Ian Keatley?

Unfortunately he has another year left.... talk about a world class lesson in how to come on and throw away a game.

Killer should also be shot.

Ironically being able to bring McGrath back on a take kirchner off put all the advantage back with leinster... its about time if a prop is binned its mandatory another forward has to go off.

BBDBB

I get the impression that even keatley doesn't believe he should be playing
His confidence is just shot, only a fresh start can help get anything out of his career
Poor fella

Holland looked surprised going off so no way was he injured. That change cost us. But we simply beat ourselves on the Leinster line. Can only really hope for a top six place now really. Well done leinster great defence in the end.

Bazzo

Absolute let off for Leinster there, I don't think the tap and go from Kilcoyne was very smart, surely there was time for a line out. I thought Munster thoroughly deserved at least a draw.

Holland being subbed off for Keatley???? Could somebody sneak in to Keatley's home and burn the compromising pictures of Axl he's got?
