    Munster's online content creator's are better than Leinsters!

    Very tame match thread. Gone are the blessed days when three red kings had to take it to twitter to have a public outrage.

    Think this is the first time Ruddock and POM have played against each other in a good few years - they used to have a bit of a thing didn't they?

    Ok, let's take on the challenge Venjur. Sexton is looking incredibly brittle these days. I'm not a Ross Byrne believer so while I believe Van Graan offers nothing new to Munster I wouldn't be surprised of a Munster win. Leinster's line speed is so much better than Munsters but if you take away the playmaker suddenly the bulldozing Munster doesn't look a bad option.

    I'm a bit curious how this game will pan out. I believe Sexton needs to be retired but I don't see the alternative in leinster at the moment. So maybe the men from the south can make hay in the interim

    Agreed.

    And since it's the only context in which you'll hear "Munster" and "creative" in the same breath, long may it continue.

    There's going to be a "balin' hay" joke along soon, isn't there..

    Anyone know if you can buy an Eir Sport day pass?

    Seems to be on Premier sports 2, which you can get on sports extra pass on Nowtv?

    AFAIK Eir hold the Irish rights so Premier is for UK audiences only. Lots of people have been stung by this.

    If your are in Ireland then that won't work. Now TV are very specific on their website that you cannot get pro14 matches by buying nowtv passes.

    Who are we expecting to win this? Leinster are favourites but Munster have been in good form recently I believe?

    Anyone know if Toland is on commentary tonight?

    If he is it will have to deferred coverage on TG4 for me.

    Liam Toland and Murray Kinsella, I am led to believe.

    Edit: Conor Morris and Liam Toland, more likely.

    Keith Earls catches a high ball in the back field, fumbles it and knocks on.

    Toland: "That's a strategic master class from Keith Earls, a 5m scrum is a perfect opportunity for Munster to assert their scrum dominance, that's the value of having that kind of experience on the field - Munster will be licking their lips here".

    Any good streams knocking around?

    If it’s on Premier Sports there should be. Speaking from soccer experience

    Took me ages to open up the Eir app. Eventually watching on phone and yet it won't let me cast to TV. Other channels are fine to cast but not this.

    Took me a few restarts but I got there eventually about 5 minutes ago. Keep trying I would say and you'll get there.
