MaybeMaybe

JGP has been good so far

That kick was suicidal....

Only thing that’s going to stop Leinster winning the competition is themselves. Bar far the most complete team left.

Outstanding players, great depth in squad and great coaching.

This is like the Ireland Wales game. Leinster dominating yet Scarlets still there or there abouts

Let's hope it finishes the same way.

Ferg needed that little win. He has looked the wrong side of amped since that knock on, that will settle him down before he does something daft.

Piote needs to speed up the scrum call

How did he not look at that, no way he didn't get the ball down there. Did we give away a penalty?

Edit: nope - dead right call.

Get in!

Need one more before half time now.

Great work from Murphy there to get in position for that tackle.

Losing Beirne Barclay and Williams will be tough to replace for the Scarlets

Poor discipline keeping Scarlets in this

Scarlets breakdown work is really excellent. This is a terrific game.

How Poite will adjudicate the next scrum

LuckyGent88

Mmmmm thought Beirne had the turnover in that instance.

That’s the game over now anyway.

chupacabra

harsh on Scarlets, Leinster holding on

Beirne robbed of a turnover there I thought

I'd like to see that cover tackle looked at by the ref.

Nothing in the cover tackle for me

Usual Welsh filth when it goes a bit wrong. This is simply filth of a different hue from Leinster too.

Some kick, hard to see a way back now for the Scarlets, they can't get a head up of steam at all

Great first half, Scarlett’s fans were loud here but getting drowned out. First game in a long time where no one got up for beers around us!

The first 15 after HT will be crucial. If Leinster can stretch the lead or at least keep it to the same as the HT score they'll win. Leinster'e bench looks stronger than Scarlets.

That try all came from the penalty where Poite had judged Scarlett's offside from box kick when it clearly was knocked back by a Leinster hand. Massive call to get wrong in context of match. Game over now

2011 Heinekin cup final just called, it would like a word.

Leinster get the opening score in the second half and that should be enough.

It's weird seeing the ABs wearing Leinster jerseys...

Henshaw has been brilliant on his return, pure class.
Forwards doing the job, and giving JGP ye olde armchair ride.

Scarlets will need to do more than give the ball to LH as they won't catch up in multiples of 3.

Great stuff.

Kearney and Healy both having massive games for us. Both having huge seasons after a ropey few years. Consequently both look a decent bit lighter than they have been previously.

Once again Jordi has been brilliant. He's everywhere.

I'd happily give him Player of the Year if he can close out the season like he has.

Somewhere Kieran Reid still hasn’t stopping saying “no no no.......”
