I'm going to be off work in a few days time so lets get this complete shitshow started.
Advantage over? I must have missed some play there.
Not really, Leinster had 2 men over the ball and munsters counter ruck didn’t shift them.
100% agree
Driving maul hasn't been as solid without Ryan and Jenkins.
Jeez, that holding on is as harsh as the Coombes one tbf
Agreed two very suspect turnovers given.
Nice to have a leinster game in the balance at 70 minutes.
Exactly like that one for Leinster? It’s the way it’s reffed now.
Clearly on the Leinster arm, no penalty. Would be a miracle for Leinster to close this out.
Oops, that's 2 knock on corrections by the TMO this game. Both pretty clear first time round.
Munster clearly knocked that ball on first.
Thats very poor referee-ing there. It was clear Mcgrath was holding on and he still let the leinster counter ruckers hit the ruck with a head of steam on them about 4 seconds too late.
Barron now off with a HIA from the resulting collision
Wrong way ref. Knock on red there
Except for all the times they've been able to handle him you are 100% correct.
Fair dues to Nash, some turn of speed after 70 mins.
Osborne is a bit special. Maybe 12 might suit him better
McGrath doing his best Dupont
I take that back.
Replay shows the Munster player not supporting his weight at the breakdown.
Think Munster going to edge this. The breaks seem to be going their way.
Super from Osbourne.
Big turnover from Campbell and Barron, but they’ll have felt that.
Great break from Luke but unfortunately wildly isolated.
Some try saving tackle
Crowley needs to find touch from initial penalty
That really pisses me off. None of the munster players even tried to lift thay. They just lay over it and waited for a penalty.
And to be clear, the penalty always gets given in that situation. Not just this one.
Rowntree backing all of his young players here, lot of the more senior players gone off in Murray, Carbery, Earls, POM, front rows.
Potentially symbolic stuff - especially if Muster end up winning
Coombes barely had time to put his hands on the ball never mind try to lift it.
That's a good turnover from Munster.
But that carry and offload from Osborne was breathtaking. He's the biggest prospect in Irish rugby.
Ref is all over the shop. Must be annoying for the teams. It's a lottery as to how he's going to interpret a ruck.
They’ve pretty much all been doing it for the last season and a half or more.
He hadn't even lifted (or tried to lift it)
Ah here, not sure about that one either. That was more thought the gate than the one leading up to the try.
Carbery had been poor today. Better to give Crowley the opportunity to see if he can change Munsters attacking. game.
