Yeah I don't really know why. Apart from a couple basic errors, we played well. Good attack and strong defence. Much better spirit aswell.

Handy enough win for Leinster against the Ospreys, picked up the bonus point as well, would be a bit anxious with Contepomi picking up a thigh injury at the end of the match, don't think Leinster could afford to lose him espeically with 2 tough enough away games at Cardiff and Edinburgh.

Doubt it, funds aren't the best at the moment.
As for the run in at least O'Driscoll and Corrigan will both be back for next weeks game at Glasgow.

Blackadder has made 6 changes for the match against Connacht tomorrow night. Blair is rested and Hogg picked up a shoulder knock last weekend. Webster is also out with an infected toe. Leonelli, Lawson, Strokosh, Dickinson and Duley are all in.

Now that we're in the Heineken Cup, I think it's wise to rest a few players. It gives Leonelli and Lawson a chance to say good bye and Blair has had a long season and needs a rest. Murray has also played brilliantly for both the Gunners and Scotland and is in need of a rest.
We should win this one, though Connacht are no push overs.

I wouldn't get your hopes up to be honest, Connacht don't lose often at home and with 3 games still left have a lot more to play for as well.

yah Connacht are always quite competitive at the Dog Track. They'll want to impress Bradley as well so not to give him any ambitions of leaving the province for wales or elsewhere.

Well between us and them it's normally the away side that come away with the win...infact in the past 3 years the home side has only won once and that was us, 34-3 in September. I think we can do the business, provided we play like we did last week. Though I'm not saying Connacht are completley gash.

Good to see your caps lock is working.
I can't see either the Ospreys or the Blues winning. Munster are just playing so well and Ulster are a better side than the Blues, even though the Blues are playing well.

its prob just wishful thinking, though ulster havent played many games rescently, so there could be a bit of rustiness, and looking at the two sqauds the ospreys are more than a match for munster.

Ospreys are not nearley as good as Munster just now, no one is. As Leinster and ourselves found out a couple of weeks back.
The thing with having no games is your either rusty, or well rested. Depends on how you use the break really.

The Ospereys couldn't beat a small child with the form they're in. Munster by 10+.
Not sure about Ulster-Cardiff, could go either way but I back Ulster even though they haven't played much recently.

I reckon Ulster will win, Trimble is back, Boss has been awesome recently and the pack is just too dogged to give up wins at home. Ulster by 7
Munster are very weakened. They are gonna have some ameteur/development players togging out in the front row but it's good to see Alan Quinlan's return after a huge layoff. Munster by 11

Wouldn't be worried about Munster losing tonight but would definitely be concerned with POC going off, there's no way they'll beat Biarritz if he's out for that one.

Shane Williams' first try was the most homo-erotic thing I've seen in a while.
Cardiff are shooting themselves in the foot with foul play but the ref is awful and Harrison is getting away with murder.
