    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.

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

    That was a big moment as well

    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 :(

    The difference between robk and Healy attacking is glaring

    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.

    What a performance from Connacht.

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

    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.

    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.

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