Leavy the obvious headliner there but there's a lot of players I'm eager to see. Byrne at ten and the three academy lads making their debuts in particular. Sheehan is massive and clearly very highly rated while Turner is tiny but showed a lot of talent at u20s.

Wash your mouth out

Wash your mouth out

This one is not worthy to write about the Great One.

 

[Leinster Fan]

Leavy to play 15 minutes and still break the all time records for both tries and turnovers in a game. Playing outhalf becaus why not.

Then he'll replace POM on the bench for next day. This will happen and is realistic. He'll then inspire Ireland to a Six Nations ***le.

Cool team outside of that but who cares to be honest.

 

[big ginger 8]

Hawkshaw out now with an adductor strain and Michael Silvester in now. Very rough on Hawkshaw as that's at least a few weeks but Silvester does probably gives us better cover off the bench as he's an outside back.

Hawkshaw can't buy any luck with injuries sadly. Good opportunity for Silvester though.

Hawkshaw

Can you call him something different, please?
I keep reading it as "Haskshaw" and thinking about the Haskell/Robshaw backrow combo we used to have

 

[Leonormous Boozer]

Happy to call him Hawk if everyone else is on board

Edit: Anyone who gets this reference isn't a rando.

What you want from your veterans Ruddock and Bent showing up there.

Josh Murphy has really improved as a carrier since first lockdown.

If Harry Byrne can calm down we should run away with this.

 

[Leonormous Boozer]

If Peter Dooley doesn't score now he should lose his contract

 

[big ginger 8]

Handy one for Sheehan but great reaction.

 

[Leonormous Boozer]

Up Dave and Up Ridin

 

[big ginger 8]

Lovely strike move, coaches have been raving about Sheehan's hands.

Zebra very lucky not to have a card.

 

[big ginger 8]

Leinster hookers score a lot of tries.

 

[big ginger 8]

The man, the myth, the legend with a great try.

Edit: that was a slick try from Zebre.

 

[munstermuffin]

Zebre really weaken this competition. They are gone awful

 

[MikeTheNative]

Benneton V Scarlets was the worst pro match I have ever seen. Both teams deserved zero points from that.

 

[snoopy snoopy dog dog]

Very impressed by Jimmy O'Brien for Leinster last night
