Munster v Leinster

Solid pressure from Munster, you could see that one was coming. Leinster need a bit of posession now to slow down any potential Munster momentum and to quieten the crowd a bit.

In from the side of the ruck surely

Two tries and an assist from Lowe.

That'll wind the crowd up.

You love to see it.

Munster just aren't good enough at the highest level. On paper their starting front 5 was superior to Leinsters, but they never actually showed that on the pitch. Scrum was iffy and they didn't show any sort of physical dominance.

De Allende and Farrell have been shown up by Henshaw and Ringrose over multiple matches. The skills of the latter are used so much better. I've seen them passing behind and around Munsters centres so often.

Lastly, Carbery just isn't the answer at 10. I think your centres are an issue, but Carbery doesn't use them well either. His decision making is too slow. Dithers on the ball and slows everything down.

Never enjoy seeing the team I support lose, but scoreline is pretty accurate for me as regards where these two teams are right now.

Van Graan has been with munster for 5 years. That's 3 years too many imo.

The most disgusting thing is that he was offered 2 more years by Nucifora et al!!! It was VG who decided to turn that down and take Bath's (presumably) better offer.

The man is inept. We were warned about him by South Africa fans at the time, who celebrated his departure from their coaching set up.

Munster have stagnated for 5 years. As I said already, the worst aspect of all of this is that there were a cohort of people in positions of power who thought it was a good idea to keep this man in this job.

Disgraceful.

Well done Leinster btw. Fair result.

We should have got rid of van gran in December. Very little go forward ball.

very little to be optimistic about in my eyes

Doris and VDF are just head and shoulders above every backrow in Ireland currently. Carrying, physicality, workrate is just unmatched.

Thought the referee had a good game in general. Good communication and very consistent. Though we should have got a yellow. If not after DDA’s try, certainly in the last 3 minutes there. Very poor discipline in the red zone from Leinster.

If Coombes hadn't gone off that would have at least been a lot closer. You could see him punching at least one of Munster's chances over down in the red zone.

Well done to Leinster , clearly the better team tonight
