[QUOTE="dullonien, post: 900617, member: 13739"] Only just finished watching the game after a busy day. Wow, just wow. I knew the Scarlets were going to be up against it, but that was another level from Leinster! The most impressive aspects of their game was certainly their work at the ruck, and their physicality. On paper the Scarlets are one of the best turnover teams in Europe, but the way Leinster support their ball carriers, and their technique in clearing-out is just about unplayable at times. Scarlets couldn't get a sniff of the ball. This all resulted in massive dominance in the early stages, and put Scarlets under huge pressure, on the scoreboard, physically and mentally. When the Scarlets did get possession, they were under huge pressure to do something with it, and they couldn't with mistakes creeping into their game. Wouldn't be surprised to see a similar scoreline in the final if they play the same way. Totally gutted, but congrats Leinster supporters. [/QUOTE]
