    Do you disagree?

    Going forward we need everyone on board or we can take this offline

    Isa shooting again nearly cost another try although maybe for the first one he had no choice

    Is that two weeks in a row we've ****ed a short, defensive line out up?

    Leinster need to cop on. Far too passive

    Absorb all that pressure, save one try, get away with another, then that lineout to hand the possession straight back to Toulon leading to a scrum on the line that they'll be gunning for a penalty try from.

    Frustrating.

    I thought they've been pretty aggressive actually, defense have been great this evening.

    Cronin really needs to sort out his throwing. If you can't do your primary job the rest doesn't matter.

    Healy being minced. Lad is not right.

    Inevitable.

    Good on Barnes for not waiting for 3 or 4 scrums to give it.

    Healy's scrummaging has not been great this season. McGrath is much better at this stage.

    It was his use of going forward I was mocking - I initially thought he literally meant going forward on the pitch

    the flanker was shoving on healy

    barnes is being very strict now on leinster, when he was a bit more lenient in the first half on toulon

    This is falling apart. Tired from the effort up to this point, perhaps.

    You can only see one team winning this, unless someone steps up from Leinster to do something magical.

    A big reason Leinster are winning this game is Eoin Reddan. He's facilitating a high tempo game.

    Teams under pressure usually concede more penalties. I wouldn't blame Barnes for Leinster conceding more in this half. Toulon have really ramped it up.

    By running down blind alleys, throwing **** passes, and poor box kicks? Think he's been average to poor, being frenetic in your actions doesn't equal effectiveness.

    Getting too easy for them now. Leinster are knackered.
