    Northampton can generate their scores far easier than us. Been a complete failure of the rush defenc.

    SP missed kicks going to be costly in a tight game.

    Just can’t get any foothold in this game. They keep the scoreboard ticking over when Leinster score. Sam’s kicking off the tee is a major issue

    That's poor from Keenan.

    prendergast is like a weak child. What was he complaining about for that try? He’s an embarrassment

    Not sure I'd have taken Mitchell off this early - he's been playing very well.

    I never thought I would say it but they need Ross Byrne on the pitch asap.

    I'm a SP fan but I think he's missed more today.

    Letting them score five tries with ease is a major issue too…

    Northampton will win this and it's well deserved.

    We've been outplayed and outcoached which is such a concern considering how feted our set up is. Another season with nonEurop and trophy and by far the best squad left in the competition.

    Nienaber's system being totally shown up today, tbh. Not ruling us out yet, but jaysus, we've handed them points far too easily.

    Lowe had a four on one and kicked it out on the full.

    Heads have gone.

    shoulder to head

    at this stage a yellow is as good as a red

    Leinster need to get points from this play.

    Plenty of time for 2 scores.

    All about mentality now.

    That should be a red card, no?

    Driving straight up with force. Nailed on red card.

    Be it yellow or red I still can't see Leinster winning this. Leinster players' heads are scrambled and will keep making stupid mistakes.

    The dummy throw and that tackle are two huge momentum swinging moments - and will be unforgivable if Northampton contrive to lose.

    Should be a yellow for Pollock. So cynical holding on.
