    Leinster looking lethargic and weak

    How did they ever decide to play a final on this pitch way too tight!

    That would've been an all timer Heineken Cup try if Dupont had stayed in.

    I'll wait until Leinster have a spell in possession before I start weighing in on how it'll play out.

    Finding a lot of space, blitz not working well so far

    Osbourne couple of errors already. Hopefully out of the system.

    Very harsh penalty there

    I hate in-goal areas that small. Ridiculous.

    Carley is giving both 9s ages at the back of the ruck.

    Great counter-ruck there. Osbourne not having a great start at all

    Could be 6-0 down here in a flash! Come on lads, wake up!

    Appalling start.

    No structure to the attack at all. Osborne isolating himself as a result.

    new Leinster defense strategy looking disastrous

    Poor so far. Need some possession to settle us

    Did Meafou not go off his feet after the counter ruck?

    Game could slip away from us pretty quickly

    We've barely had the ball, folks need to calm down a bit. Long way to go.

    So? It's still comfortably a legal sized pitch under the laws.

    Come on Carley, you blew Osbourne straightaway and let them away twice there with bodies flopping on the wrong side.

    Should've been a penalty against Willis earlier

    Ahki has started poorly. Noped out of the restart and a bad read to let Lowe through.

    Not taking the 3 is lunacy

    Why the aversion to taking 3 points?

    Leinster finding space but their ball handling is woeful

    Super defence, could have been a try with the quick penalty. Bunch of Leinster players turned their backs
