    Leinster:

    Starting 15
    Cian Healy, Sean Cronin, Tadhg Furlong, Ryan Baird, James Ryan, Josh Murphy, Josh van der Flier, Caelan Doris

    Luke McGrath, Ross Byrne, Dave Kearney, Robbie Henshaw, Garry Ringrose Jordan Larmour, Jimmy O'Brien

    Substitutes
    Ronan Kelleher, Michael Milne, Michael Bent, Devin Toner, Jack Conan, Cormac Foley, Rory O'Loughlin, Tommy O'Brien


    Ulster Rugby:
    Eric O Sullivan, Rob Herring, Marty Moore, Sam Carter, Iain Henderson, Matthew Rea, Sean Reidy, Nick Timoney

    David Shanahan, Billy Burns, Craig Gilroy, Stuart McCloskey, James Hume, Robert Baloucoune, Jacob Stockdale

    Substitutes
    Bradley Roberts, Callum Reid, Tom O'Toole, Alan O'Connor, Greg Jones, Nathan Doak, Ian Madigan, Robert Lyttle


    bookies have this as -17 spread to Leinster, which is about right. Great talent out wide for Ulster, but will they get clean enough ball to utilise?

    Probably makes sense for Ulster to go strong as sending a bunch of kids to get smashed will not be good for anyone

    That said for the last two games we need to be starting the likes of Reid and Doak, and if fit maybe giving Stewart a shot at hooker.

    The title has puzzled me.

    It's currently May. This rainbow cup is nonsense so you "May Care" or you may not care. Care obviously is followed by Bear to complete everyone's favourite children's TV show, "Care Bear(s)". It is a cup.

    May Care Bear Cup. Genius.

    I'd go back to my suggestion a few weeks back to Rainbow Cup with Bungle, Zippy George and Geoffrey.

    Slipping tackles and letting players gain metres after the tackle, some really really sloppy stuff in defence so far.

    Ryan has saved us a fair few times so far

    Harsh calling the knock on, it was so crooked Rhea had to stretch that far to get a finger tip to it

    Leinster had plenty of opportunities to clear their lines in the last 5 minutes.

    Very poor play. We've been awful for the opening 20.

    Well worked try to be fair, Leinster contributed with some poor decisions in defence but credit to Balacoune and McCloskey in particular.

    Leinsters work.at the breakdown has deteriorated alarmingly over the last few weeks. La Rochelle demolished us there and Ulster have had hit this week.

    It's opposite day today, we've decided that it's our turn to fall of tackles and let the opposition dominate us

    Great steal from Baird at the lineout.

    The one area where we're comfortably on top.

    I don't rate Burns very highly.

    He hesitated so much there are telegraphed his kick.

    Byrne mustn't be fully fit if Ringrose is taking the place kicks.

    JOB is taking the touch finders, so his hamstring must be tight

    Brilliant read from Henshaw but I think he caught Baloucoune high.

    Kearney and Henshaw saving us there, Henshaw hurt himself and possibly gave away a penalty.
