What does the law say about simultaneous grounding?

Hmmm. It doesn’t. Seems to fall under the doubt about grounding law.

DOUBT ABOUT GROUNDING

If there is doubt about which team first grounded the ball in in-goal, play is restarts with a five-metre scrum, in line with the place where the ball was grounded. The attacking team throws in.

Three score lead upcoming and that will be game.

Just me or did Johnny seem less cranky than he has been in a long time today?

Definitely. And he was better for it.

Has the entire Toulouse team lost 30 IQ points since the quarter final?

Class stuff from Larmour.

If he'd slipped that tackle there's no way he'd have been caught.

well done Leinster, professional performance today

Toner the talisman strikes again and Johnny showed up when it mattered

Still sore about Munster yesterday though

Motm?

I’d say Ryan or Conan.

Conan has been terrific.

Ryan or Conan make sense to me

I’m starting to think he should get Irish 8 shirt. We see if joe agrees.

Agree. Stander or POM to fight it out for starting 6/bench spot.

You'd have to think he's very very close

His footwork is what sets him apart from Stander for me, don't get me wrong he's a great workhorse and will truck it up all day long, but Conan's offloading and footwork means he's getting a hell of a lot more metres per carry.

Toulouse are a dud. Tactically and mentally inept. Basically France in red.

Bit lazy to give Johnny MOTM

Michael Bent carrying very well since he came on.

Great performance

Couldn't have said it better.
Clinical performance from Leinster, controlled the game and looked like they could have stepped it up another notch if needed, tbh. Bench players were excellent.

They've played far better this season. What was frustrating was the amount of mistakes that were all fault of their own. Added that to Leinster controlling the ball and stout defence, it was a poor performance from them.

Going to be a cracking final, an in form Sexton up against Farrell again. Can't wait.

There is a surprise final... said no one

Conan is really playing himself into starting 8 for Ireland on this form. He was motm for me. I maybe haven't seen enough of him in the last few months for Leinster but I feel like he's gotten significantly better handling this season.

Seanie emotional after his last game at the Aviva in a Leinster shirt.

That was easily our best performance this season. After the Toulouse game in the RDS the Toulouse players said they were caught out cold by Leinster's suffocating defence. They were prepared for it this time and we still held them tryless. That was an incredible performance.
