    This is too easy for Leinster. Getting beyond the gain line almost every carry.

    Ulster backs are just way too small and getting smashed.

    Jaysus. Liam Toland is just awful.

    Ugh, Lowry could be in trouble here. Daly's hip right into his temple unexpectedly too.

    Good penalty win by McBurney who then scores. Very impressive start by him

    Ball was stopped well before the line. Ulster shouldn't be scoring from there.

    Great set from Ulster off that lineout, and well worked from McBurney alright.

    Hmm...that Lowry/Daly incident is kind of interesting in terms of where it lands in the broader discussion.

    That's piss poor from Ulster.

    Tackling optional.

    Letter of the law says that if Daly lands on his head there, Lowry gets red.

    (shows how bad an outcome-based law is)

    Kernohan had a howler for that try.

    Handed off so easily.

    O'Brien did great, but it didn't have to be that great. Can see this being 50-19 or so
