    He's been fairly consistent on favouring the attacking team in that respect.

    Good defence from Leinster. Ulster have played well, just got blown away in the physical stakes at key points.

    Yeah fair enough, just annoyed me because he did so well to get over the ball cleanly and legally!

    He was right. It literally makes no difference how good Heaslips body position is. That's just not how the rules work

    He was very good tonight. Sexton aldo showing that class is permanent.

    Henderson good for us.

    Henderson has been phenomenal and Jackson excellent.

    Well played Luhnster. Fun game to watch (if frustrating) and a massive turn around from two weeks ago. Plug may have a future yet!

    You'd fancy Glasgow to take all the spoils in Scotland.

    Our lack of a decent pack is telling massively, can't believe we invested in so many backs instead.

    You'd hope with Coetzee and Piteau coming next year that we'll aim for the home semi.

    Fair play Leinster....you wanted that more.

    Heaslip deserved MOM but Jordi Murphy was worthy of it too. He's sorted out his form in the last couple months. Good thing too with SOB and VdF out.

    Special mention for Ross Molony. The kid is so impressive. Crucial line-out steal, nice mini line-break, offload and he even got himself an intercept.

    Coetzee won't play much and Pitau just isn't what you need. Ridiculous use of resources when Ulster's pack are consistently what lets them down.

    Good game.

    More Hendersons would be great.

    Definitely. They have the form and pedigree.

    I'll be rooting for Connacht tomorrow but once the regular season is done the international players perform at a test match level. If Glasgow do that in the next two games, I don't see beyond them.

    Anyone watching on TG4?

    Two lads walk into shot carrying the desk and plop it in front of the panel. Cuts to the crowd for a second. Goes back and the desk is gone.

    Have to feel for Best. Really hurting in that interview. Poor bloke. Very emotional.

    Get yourself back Rory. Lead us to a win in South Africa. No better man and proud he's captain of my country.

    No chance Rory gives up that captaincy btw. He's just hurt. Too good a player and a captain.
