    Wilson at 10 is a 35 year old temporary signing out of retirement and he looks every bit of it. That intercepted pass was hopeless.

    Ref calling advantage over was bizarre there

    It wasn't. They got clean turnover ball in open space with numbers outside and were moving it. That is on Wilson not the referee.

    Terrible restart again and they get a penalty straight away

    Jeez I know it's BT Sport, you think O'Driscoll was from Coventry or some place with his knit picking of Leinster

    He wasn't though. He complained about being held by a player on the ground thereby preventing his clear out

    Nah, think you're wrong there chief. Ball was intercepted around or behind where the lineout had even taken place.

    Contrast with Lowe's advantage

    Larmour was only there to catch that because Sexton absolutely roared at him to drop back lol!

    Which means absolutely nothing. It was knock on advantage. The context is that they secured possession and then executed a back line move which is generally exactly what they'd have done with a scrum restart. They do not all have to make any significant territorial gain.

    Underhill is having a big game. He's such a nuisance.

    That could have been a yellow but can't fault the ref, the tackle was at waist height.

    I'm glad it wasn't more, Leinster have to front up here - I don't want any advantages, I want them to strong arm this game on merit and not due to numerical advantage.

    McGraths head was about 4 foot off the ground when he got hit. It was accidental and the ref got it right

    Would have been harsh but I feel it was a common sense call. Still lucky not to see a yellow
