[QUOTE="An Tarbh, post: 64675"] So the All Ireland clash is almost upon us and this mouthwatering tie promises to be something truly special. Definitely has a similar feel about it to the Munster Wasps game 2 years ago or even the quarter final with Leinster and Toulouse at the start of the month. I don't necessarily buy into the credance that it will be a case of Leinster's backs against Munster's forwards. Leinster proved in Toulouse and Bath that their pack are no mugs. They posess a formidable backrow that will certainly pose Munster serious problems, set piece is obviously an advantage for Munster but should Leinster gain parity then it gives a platform for their backs, marshalled superbly by Contepomi to create plenty of attacking chances. The clash last time out at the RDS was certainly interesting as Leinster's pack more than held their own even managing to maul the much vaunted pack over 20 metres, not bad for a bunch of lady boys. No shortage of needle going into this clash in what should prove to be the biggest day in Irish provincial rugby with the winner no doubt heading to Cardiff as favourites to pick up the trophy. So how do you see this one going, can Leinster continue their fine European form or will the Munster juggernaut keep rolling all the way to Cardiff? [/QUOTE]
