    Too many mistakes. This team finds it very difficult to get over the line.

    Dupont a big game player unlike any of ours in green.

    I think he has been inconsistent with some of his calls. A yellow for Lowes knock on but the same action by Toulouse player went unpunished.

    But the losing of the game definitely hasn't been down to the ref. Leinster were out thought by Toulouse.

    There it is! Serial underachieving! Again! Leo probably should look to move on. This side is clueless.

    It’s incredible that this could be the third season in a row Leinster win nothing. At a certain point, surely Cullen needs to go.

    Horrendous game management and decision making, Leo has to answer some hard questions.

    Leinster had all of the momentum going into the second half of extra time.

    Just can't understand how they didn't capitalise.

    Do we need to acknowledge that Leinster and indeed Ireland have a problem with winning *big* games?

    Sickening today. We just don't seem to perform in these make or break games at the top level.

    Game handed to them by the ref, against 14 men and they still bottled it. 🤣

    Leo needs to move on. This is now an undeniable legacy of underachievement. Coaches botched it today.

    Not sure Doris is captain material. He's a fine player but we consistently made the wrong calls.

    Leinster lack

    1. A bruising lock or loosie
    2. A top class 10

    Cullen has run his race. Too often the nearly man. Trying to get Toulouse down to 13 on a technicality is a bit poor form too.

    In other surprising news yet another final has a red card and Dupont named motm. Willis was excellent

    Agreed. And Toulouse were superb at disrupting our maul.

    I think Ringrose was a huge loss here. His brains and vision would have made a difference.

    Too many mistakes, feel sorry for all the Leinster fans. I wanted them to win.

    I was in Croke Park and the end of that game worried me. The mistakes have continued since. I'm not sure why that suddenly happens, maybe it's a new sports psychologist they need but they need some change for sure . They have too much talent for this to happen again.

    We're not going to win anything until we get a quality 10. Clermont levels now.

    The lack of a decent outhalf hurt leisnter today. Does resting the main team work before these big games?

    Maybe a change in head coach🤷‍♂️

    Kieran Frawley should have played more at 10
