Wow. Piutau. That's embarrassing.

It really was a pitiful effort. I feel bad even putting the word effort in there.

Ulster are so so bad it's embarrassing.

Ulster seem up for this surprisingly, just need some ball in hand

Not enough studs in Ferg's boots there. Comical!

Piutau playing tip

Great perseverance but that's a an abomination of a tackle from Piutau.

That was brutal from Piatua there

Huge sidestep from McGrath there. Larmour-esque

Great steal from Deysel on the deck there.

Good bit of learning there for Stockdale

Clegg

Larmour just disrespected Stockdale's family.

Oh god those feet. Jesus.

Hot stepper.
Larmour for 6n squad!

Took Leinster bout 10 seconds to get the first try there.

Ringrose dazed himself tackling Piatau there.

Late late notice, I know, but I've two seats for the South Stand that I'm unable to use unexpectedly. If someone wants them - pop me your email address and I'll fire them on via email via ticket transfer.

I thought Larmour actually did pronounce his name in that funny french way?

Larmour is a really popular surname up north, I would be absolutely astounded if the BBCNI commentators were calling him the french one without being told to. It'd be like Ryle Nugent mispronouncing Fitzgerald.

Sky commentators also pronounced it the French way, so I assume they've been told to.

It wasn't BBCNI commentators who were mispronouncing his name, it was Sky commentator and also BBC News sports presenter as I referenced in my OP.

Is josh Murphy some sort of hybrid construct player?

Last season he actually made his tackles for a while. This season has reverted again.

Last week a lot of'em he was trying to go very low, which increase the chances of missing. He seems to be a bit unsettled on it. But he's good at attacking. So I reckon that's kept him in the game.

He turns 28 later this season...has been on the go for a good few years now. I wouldn't have been surprised to see him on a higher figure. He must feature in about 12-15 Pro12/14 games a season along with a few European games.

If he stays fit and Leinster retain him, he'll end up with not far off 200 appearances.

no way he makes 150 IMO, well unless the academy utterly fails to develop the O'Briens - Conor, Jimmy, Tommy and Sean.

No one's saying he should be first choice for Leinster or Ireland. He's just a good option, and one that I'm happy to see line out for Leinster.
