Interesting selection at 5 for us...

I imagine Cullen is resting the likes of Ringrose and McGrath ahead of them having to player a string of games in a row, or at least I hope that's why.

 

[Leonormous Boozer]

If Bath beat Toulon I want Leinster to lose! If not I want to hammer you ****ers! This could be one of the best matches of the weekend and I think we could make it an unbeaten January if we perform!

I want Bath to beat Toulon too! Though not as keen on the us getting hammered part

 

[big ginger 8]

Well that's not a bad start.

 

[big ginger 8]

Not so good follow up...

We need to get the ball and hold on to it as well start defending the maul well.

 

[big ginger 8]

Dave 'not so average' Kearney.

 

[LeinsterMan (NotTigsMan)]

What happened to Simpson?

 

[big ginger 8]

What happened to Simpson?

Landed awkwardly on his ankle, good chance of ligament damage I'd say.

 

[LeinsterMan (NotTigsMan)]

FFS

He never manages to get a good run when the internationals are about.

 

[ratsapprentice]

Hasn't Tuisova been capped by Fiji in the 7s?

 

[LeinsterMan (NotTigsMan)]

Yep

 

[ratsapprentice]

Thought so... Eykyn was saying would become France eligible this summer.

 

[big ginger 8]

We look so dead, need someone who'll inject some enthusiasm into or play. We're not going to win this so might as well empty the bench. Dooley, Moloney and Te'o can all make an impact.

Wasps have been really good but this performance is ******* me off. Hopefully it's just that we're already out and most have one eye on the 6N.

 

[LukeFitzgerald]

Wasps have played decently enough but have been given everything from the ref. In from the side, offside all the time, missed knock ons, constantly holding on. I admit, from the 30th min onwards, Leinster have been poor but the ref is shambolic. Absolutely disgraceful performance from the ref

 

[LeinsterMan (NotTigsMan)]

Ref been fine.

Not great but not crap IMO.

Leinster haven't been poor they have been crap.

Farrell would of got it.

 

[snoopy snoopy dog dog]

Well this is horrific. Time to trust in youth because experience just isn't getting it done.

 

[LeinsterMan (NotTigsMan)]

That was awful by Leinster!!!!!!

At least wasps are top of the group.

 

[Leonormous Boozer]

Ref been fine.

Not great but not crap IMO.

Leinster haven't been poor they have been crap.

Farrell would of got it.

The ref has been about as good as Cathal Marsh now... Only worth about 7-10 points mind!
