Leinster v Racing Métro 92

[King_D'Arcy]

I'm liking the look of Kearney again... He was safe as houses under the high ball and his counter attacking was class. I almost jizzed when he scored that try. What sexy execution of a play off a set piece. O'Driscoll and Sexton take a bow.

Great to see the backs in that kind of form, apart from the knock-ons.

Racing's backs looked like they'd never played together before. Always depressing to see what's happened to Steyn - big boot battering ram, when he started so brilliantly four years ago.

Leinster have done exactly what they needed to do and have made a statement. With Clermont and Saracens failling to impress I think Leinster have shown they a major threat in the group. Leinster won this game simply because they won the physical battle. Racing have some big, strong players but leinster knocked them back every time ( nacewa cut Chabal down, Fitzgerald made a monsterous hit and Horgan shot out the line to make a great player). The subs were brilliant Healy came on and gave us some powerful carrying, Ryan added even more intensity, Horgan stood up today, mcfadden got a try and even Harris-wright made a good run. The whole squad was brilliant. Mike Ross had one of the best games ive seen, Heaslip lead superbly, Strauss was solid, O'brien was very physical, Fitzgerald was great in attack and defence, Kearney had one of ther best games in the last 6 months solid under high ball and Sexton, O'driscoll and Darcy linked up brilliantly. One of the best Leinster performances in ages!!!!!!
