    As a Connacht fan can I just say thank you. Great to have four teams in the Heineken next season. The best of luck to ye in the final lets hope for another cracker of a match.

    Great win, if slightly undeserved.

    Referee let Leinster away many times without giving yellow cards.

    What a finish. My heart was in my mouth.

    Congratulations Leinster, 3 Finals in 4 years. A truely great team.

    Connacht have to be delighted.

    EDIT: Undeserved is the wrong word for it, but they had a good share of luck, as all teams who reach a final must have. Clermont must be sick after playing so well to lose once more.

    Leinster, my heart rate is at a very unhealthy level right now. Wow. That defence was outstanding. Inches.

    The Heineken Cup is the greatest tournament on earth, every year it's the same heart racing stuff on a round to round basis!


    Leinster and Ulster thank you so much, Connacht are in the Heineken Cup next year!

    Poor show from the Clemont 'fans'. Booing at every opportunity. Suppose that's the french way

    Looking back we were lucky as ****.
    Barnes were very very kind to us. Could have been 2 players in the bin.

    Cullen getting his face smashed in on the line at the end wasn't nice.

    Because Twickenham have it. It was decided years ago.

    They probably deserved the win on the balance of things though. They had a poor 20minutes and lost the game.

    At least there are no French posters on the board. They could shift some very valid criticism at Barnes.

    Great to see an all Irish final. Leinster should walk it. Ulster have been very lucky to get so far.
