Penalty leinster, 17 to 7

theVersatile

Won't see a softer penalty than that all weekend

randomname2005

Now Murphy down.

Clegg

Been an extremely sloppy 10 minutes from Leinster. Letting Northampton back into the game.

Pudsy33

The lack of accuracy is poor enough, we don't look particularly sharp despite being the obviously superior team.

UAEguy2020

That's about as cheap a penalty as they come.

Pudsy33

Anyone getting worried?

Almost like they switched off after the two tries

This is very poor.

Northampton are playing against the wind this half too.

Leinster blowing hard. Wonder how much they eased up for this.

Faugheen

It’s like Northampton have upped the intensity and Leinster have dropped theirs.

They need the half time whistle. Momentum is completely gone.

Need a score before half time to get confidence back

Other way around i think?

Faugheen

That’s really poor from JGP. Everyone outside of the 9 was covered.

UAEguy2020

That's two tries gifted to Northampton from a Leinster screw up at the set piece.

Ringrose is not in the game at all and looks hurt again.

And WHAT was VDF doing there

Clegg

That Ringrose down again?

Kraftwerk

Late shoulder on Ringrose I think which is what Byrne was complaining about.

Why is jgp having to ruck?

UAEguy2020

That pass by VDF show's where Leinster are mentally.

He's barely taking contact from what I can see, just acting as a pivot in most instances.

Clegg

Baird is phenomenal in contact.

Morathi

JESUS HOW DID WE NOT SCORE THERE

Ah Ross.

Kraftwerk

Poor from Byrne. Options both sides and he picked neither.

Burkie1203

Incredible finish from Dave

Because forwards are leaving themselves isolated.

JGP has been as poor as he was 3 years ago in these last 10 mins. Been a long time since it was this bad.
