So even though we've been sitting in the Anglesea Stand for years, we might not get seats in the new stand once it's redeveloped, is that correct? Well the anglesea is going to be levelled so no! They are saying they are also reconfiguring the grandstand - wonder if they will try to enlarge it give...

Looks like the upper tier will be closed?

They have been called out for hypocrisy on booing.

I remember being in Thomond when Heaslip was booed while going off injured, he was Ireland captain at the time. [emoji849]

It would mean sending a bigger squad and paying for extra flights. Not everyone can afford a week in Fota to save 6 hours travel time. Jenkins has played 3 weeks in a row, 15 games this season and with Ryan gone we're tighter at lock. The only upside is that he'd be glad of a trip home. If we don't...

Was Kerr Barlow OK after the game?

Do you think that ROGs antics and his standing with of Leinsters fans (and you would assume players) will hurt any future chances of being a future Irish coach? Yes, hopefully it does. There's nothing to suggest he would do well at international level where a big cheque book is no use and you'd nee...

I’m seeing online today a raft of people calling out Leinster fans for booing ROG and then referring to his years of service as Irelands 10 as if this should make him untouchable. F*ck them. They were the same Munster Fans cheering on LaRochelle. If it wasnt this it would be somthing else. F*ck the...

Stephen Jones in the Sunday Times talking about the semi. There's so many holes in his argument that it's impossible he can't see them. He just likes being controversial. "They will face Leinster, who beat La Rochelle 40-13, in the semi-final, and in a massive shock, Leinster are not hosting i...

In the email from Leinster earlier they clearly point out the ticketing is being handled by EPCR - maybe they are expecting issues?

"The Investec Champions Cup Semi-Final is an EPCR event and the allocation of tickets to Leinster Rugby is controlled by the EPCR."

I reckon ROG loves being booed by Leinster fans. The only thing worse than being talked about is not being talked about at all, and all that. It's all very pearl clutching from the southern province. Well we won't be talking about him now that LR are out of the competition after we hammered them. [...

I think you have to stick, no offence to Ringer but I can't see a reason to drop Osborne. He was great again today and has now become another kicking option when we're under pressure.

Match Preview Once more unto the breach, dear friends! For the fourth season running Leinster will meet La Rochelle in the knock-out stages of the Champions Cup. And it's fair to say Leinster have had their fill of La Rochelle at this stage. There have been three heart-breaking defeats, with each o...

From Matt Williams in the Times: "While it is part of Leinster’s culture to not publicly talk about their passion, unlike Munster and La Rochelle, it is a very foolish team that deceives themselves into believing that their passion is superior to Leinster’s. A trap that many Munster teams of t...

‘We’ll take any support we can!’ – La Rochelle enjoying Cork welcome as key trio fit for Leinster https://www.independent.ie/sport/rugby/champions-cup/well-take-any-support-we-can-la-rochelle-enjoying-cork-welcome-as-key-trio-fit-for-leinster/a753202471.html Met Donnacha Ryan a few years ago - seem...

The BBC Rugby Union Weekly and the Rugby Pod are there if you need a rugby pod fix sans the LAR lovefest, granted from a Premiership perspective. Note worthy that Chris Ashton felt Leinster have a tendency to lose their way at times in games and top teams like LAR may be able to capitalise on this....

Leinster and Ticketmaster at it again worst tickets being offered to season ticket holders and no 2 by premium tickets for €109 available even though I checked at 2pm on the dot. Really poor Same here, couldn't get and 2 for €100 and was trying at bang on 2PM. Either there were none available at al...

Now DuPont is awol is there a better scrum half than JGP atm?

Dupont is starting for Toulouse tomorrow.

It sure is, Carley should have given a penalty try near the end.

Leinster expect physical Tigers to maul hard

That's a pretty poor effort of an article, Pollard also started the 2023 RWC final and Conan didn't come off the bench last week.
