    Good man Keenan.

    Lovely line from Keenan

    Judging from the start I think it's more a case of Leinster getting into their own heads. Needless offside penalty from McGrath was the start.

    That's much better from Leinster. Excellent counter ruck from Murphy, distribution from Frawley and line from Keenan.

    Lovely handling by Frawley.

    Keenan on form, always sees the opportunity

    Another lovely try.

    Some excellent hands from the 10/12/13 axis to get around the Connacht rush defence.

    Absurd penalty against Connacht, nothing at all in that.


  • Posts: 0 [Deleted User]


    That try should never have happened, the initiating penalty was never a penalty. Ludicrous.


  • Registered Users Posts: 17,058 ✭✭✭✭Clegg


    It's at a much lower level, but it's encouraging to see us pass around a defence rather than try and bash through a wall.


  • Registered Users Posts: 8,227 ✭✭✭ongarite


    WOW!!


  • Registered Users Posts: 17,058 ✭✭✭✭Clegg


    Two trys off the back of a strong driving maul.

    Good stuff especially after the dismal opening 15 minutes.


  • Registered Users Posts: 11,392 ✭✭✭✭Burkie1203


    Conan off. Balls


  • Registered Users Posts: 17,058 ✭✭✭✭Clegg


    Hopefully that's not a serious knock for Conan. He has a Lion's tour to go on.

    Can't see why. Not a HIA?

    It's for a HIA according to the graphic on Eir Sport.

    Shoulder I think. Only got a glimpse of him being treated

    Bonus point try after 28 minutes.

    In the 15th minute we'd scored 0 points and were losing by 16.


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 10,498 Mod ✭✭✭✭aloooof


    Angry Leinster are pretty good.


  • Registered Users Posts: 12,796 ✭✭✭✭mfceiling


    Don't want to sound like I'm having a go but....

    This carry on of a player running 20 metres roaring and shouting to pat another player on the back has to stop.
    You charged up quick and their player knocked it on....big fcuking deal. You're getting a scrum for the knock on. You don't need a heroes reception for that.

    As you were.


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,290 ✭✭✭KaneToad


    Looks short


  • Registered Users Posts: 17,058 ✭✭✭✭Clegg


    Don't think you can overturn that.

    Murphy awarded that try pretty conclusively.

    Sarries started that s**t, then everyone decided to copy it instead of telling Sarries they looked like clowns!! now its a competition to see who can over celebrate the most

    Very strange that Murphy tried to influence Butler to not go for the challenge there. It's not on him to advise a captain on it.


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 10,498 Mod ✭✭✭✭aloooof


    Leinster are exceptionally good at getting away with holding guys into or beyond the ruck.

    I remember years ago Johnny O'Connor being lambasted for celebrating a try in an over exuberant manner. We've travelled a long way since then...
