    Brilliant from Reid.

    BP for Leinster.

    Looking like serious contenders now this year.

    Bonus point win against Glasgow.

    ****en brilliant.

    A smash and grab playing badly, we'll take it.

    Our defence is poor but Glasgow have had no luck, we couldn't have coped with those injuries. We'll ride our luck and target our work-ons, great stuff.

    Last year 20 points was enough for a home quarter. To be half way there after two weeks is a great thing. If we can top our group we should be at home for the quarter.

    If you'd told me we'd have 10 points after the first two games I'd have laughed at you. Great stuff.

    Sexton or Ruddock motm for me, Sexton was critical today for his defensive work in mid field.

    Glasgow won't care in Round 5 so that's 15 points in the bag with Exeter x2 and Montpellier away to come.

    I was just saying to my mate this morning we needed one win away and I thought we would get it in Exerter because we are dodgy in Glasgow, happy to eat my words

    Maybe but we'll see - still an awful lot of rugby to go, no easy games in this pool.

    That’s a Leinster fan’s wet dream of a start: 10 points in the bag but still areas to improve, namely defence and you need better strike options on the wings. Ringrose back and add Lowe (which also gives a left boot option) and its looking promising. Hooker is the main weakness in the pack on a down note: throwing straight proving a bit challenging again.

    Great result in spite of horrible defence. I also hate to mention the referee but his interpretation of the breakdown was poor, as well as no yellow card for Horn.

    Thowing straight always a problem for leinster hookers

    Getting paid to watch rugby, why wouldn't you be happy?

    I think it was ROG saying on podcast about how great it was doing the 6N as he would be watching the game anyway so getting paid to watch it was great :P

    Great result but lots of areas need improving. Glasgow walked thru Leinster at times today. I thought Cronins throwing was good and the line out malfunctioned after he went off. Still think Montpellier are going to chase us down all the way. Really need Glasgow or Exeter to takes points off them

    If Exeter go and beat Montpellier tomorrow you'd expect Glasgow to be able to get the two wins against them in their back to back games.

    If that happens Glasgow would still be alive in the comp come round 5.

    Leinster defense is shocking.

    A TBP win away from home against a good Glasgow side while missing a number of experienced players and not playing at our best is a positive result. Yet all you can offer is complaints about our defence and our hooker. Is there any chance of a positive comment?
