    Hilarious power from Dillane

    Both Kearneys have been tragic defensively for a long period of time, RWC included. Lineout for Leinster is like U10's, chucking the ball down the middle and hoping. So happy for Connacht, might finally open the eyes of a lot of people.

    No substitute for pace.

    So many line breaks, too many missed tackles :/


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,154 ✭✭✭✭Neil3030


    This is like watching a Super 15 team

    Fitzgerald throwing a tantrum there before Nigel blew the whistle?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,248 ✭✭✭✭BoJack Horseman


    Champagne stuff from Connaught


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 37,978 ✭✭✭✭irishbucsfan


    Ringrose's missed tackle on Healy a far bigger contributor!

    That was a big moment as well


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,076 ✭✭✭✭vienne86


    15-0. Well deserved Connacht lead.

    I can't believe how well Connacht is playing!

    This is the kind of stuff I expect from a NZ side.

    It's a long way to go, but man this is been bloody impressive so far.

    Leinster's defence :(


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,972 ✭✭✭captbarnacles


    The difference between robk and Healy attacking is glaring

    Thats no coincidence

    Leinster's defence hasn't really been a problem. Connacht's attack is making it look bad.

    Connacht refusing to let the game be played at any pace other than 11. Full pace, full pressure, forcing gaps. Brilliant stuff really.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,847 ✭✭✭✭bilston


    What a performance from Connacht.

    Fair to say the Connacht back three are proving a point.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,076 ✭✭✭✭vienne86


    Leinster really look padestrian.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,154 ✭✭✭✭Neil3030


    I'm bored now. Leinster have the ball :mad:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 365 ✭✭TeoReid


    Leinster going to need the spirit of 2011 in the second half


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 37,978 ✭✭✭✭irishbucsfan


    Leinster need to sort out their retention of possession. The most important thing to do with an opponent going through a purple patch is starve them of possession, that's been their biggest error so far.

    But they've good positional sense/ruck resourcing so it's okay they lack pace/are bad tacklers

    Scintillating rugby from Connacht so far. I hope they can keep it up. It would be some way to win the final.

    Sexton's body language at that last restart was very worrying. Like he didn't give a f**k.

    He was cross with himself. He's having a decent game.

    Ah here don't be stirring.

    He wasn't happy with the kick.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 24,507 ✭✭✭✭Larbre34


    Leinster bunched. Field dressings against the missiles.

    Tiernan O'Halloran has pace, and a good defender and good positional sense and 'ruck resourcing'.

    Matt Healy is also a player who has to play for Ireland. He has X Factor, something which Ireland have lacked for a long long time.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,847 ✭✭✭✭bilston


    Is Sexton fit?

    Think he's injured.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,076 ✭✭✭✭vienne86


    Ringrose looks a bit lost.

    Looks like Sexton got a bad bang in the arm/shoulder.

    Has injured his shoulder supposedly.

    Losing him would be absolutely huge

    Leinster need to turn this into a stinker of a game and get into half time at 15-6.

    I'm torn, not sure if I want them to or not!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,012 ✭✭✭leakyboots


    Big 10 mins for Leinster, they need to get something on the board


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,076 ✭✭✭✭vienne86


    Uh oh. Sexton looks knackered.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,150 ✭✭✭✭LuckyGent88


    Aki is in beast mode

    Was that not a high tackle on Ruddock?


  • Registered Users Posts: 9 John Grady Cole


    Leinster at sixes and sevens. Pace of the Connacht back three is something to behold.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,154 ✭✭✭✭Neil3030


    Perfect clean hit by Bundee <bicep emoji>


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,427 ✭✭✭✭Clegg


    Reddan sold Sexton a pup there. Was too slow getting the pass out and ultra telegraphed for the tackle.

    Think that's his only mode.

    About time they got a penalty off the scrum!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,076 ✭✭✭✭vienne86


    Good scrum Leinster. At last something going right.


  • Moderators, Arts Moderators Posts: 23,937 Mod ✭✭✭✭TICKLE_ME_ELMO


    Boks squad named for Ireland. Bad timing.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,470 ✭✭✭✭Utopia Parkway


    Scrum is about the only thing working so far for Leinster.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 37,978 ✭✭✭✭irishbucsfan


    What's with these stupid close-ups of the ball at the back of the scrum. Give us a decent look at the scrum please


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,231 ✭✭✭A-Train


    Ffs Reddan rubbish


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,427 ✭✭✭✭Clegg


    Reddan again.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,012 ✭✭✭leakyboots


    Basics basics. Leinster are rattled


  • Moderators, Education Moderators Posts: 26,403 Mod ✭✭✭✭Peregrine


    Leinster won something!
