[QUOTE="Logorrhea, post: 396268, member: 43061"] As for the game itself people keep talking about the Saints scrum and Foden. Saints have a lot more strings to their bow then that. They offer a good mix of direct back play, forward power and counter attacking ability. As for Leinster, they have a pack capable of matching any, a defense better then any in the competition, Isa Nacewa, and more importantly a bench capable of out impacting the Toulouse bench. I think this game will be close but I think the Leinster bench will have a huge impact on the game. Its areas like this, at the end of a long-hard season, a week after a grand final when the Saints will suffer as a result of the salary cap. They just dont have enough quality players to keep their best ones really fresh. [/QUOTE]
