Well try and enjoy it anyway. I found out this morning I have COVID so I’ve had to give my tickets away so I’ll have to watch from behind the couch.

Shout extra load for me

Dulin limped off on Saturday but he’ll presumably make it. Otherwise, beyond the two you’ve mentioned, they’ve a full deck. It’s so obvious they’ve been priming their squad for these two weekends. Last weekend was the first time their heavy hitters (Atonio, Skelton, Botia, Aldritt, Danty) all start...

Obviously Ryan and Ringrose would have been definite starters and will be badly missed (I’m assuming Ringrose won’t make it), but does anyone know to what extent La Rochelle are hampered by injuries. Someone has posted an LAR team on the Leinster Fans Facebook page - as per a French paper. Full tea...

What do they know?

Have Munster returned anything from their allocation?

If Connors starting is true, this is what I expect the team to be: Porter, Sheehan, Furlong, McCarthy, Moloney, Doris, Connors, Baird JGP, Ross, Lowe, Osborne/Ringer(if fit), Henshaw, Larmour, Keenan Healy, Kelleher, Mike, VDF, Conan, Jenkins, Luke, Frawley Harry to miss out! Bold move starting two...

Don't know if anyone heard it but on RTE radio on Saturday afternoon with Joanne Cantwell there was a very unusual segment were she had BJ on where he was to apologize to Munster fans and explain his comment where he had said something along the lines of, that he heard there was trouble in the Munst...

Luke Marshall retiring at the end of the season. Injuries really did for what could have been an incredible career - he looked like an amazing player at u20 levels, by some considerable distance the best young player in Ireland Don't know if you remember his performance for the Lein/ulster combo at...

Big call! Could be the right one though

So much for 'Conservative Leo'. Benching the WPOTY is a ballsy call

I'm sure many leinster fans will hatewank themselves dry over it

I don't know what that is.......... and I don't think I want to know

Quarter final week is here people!

Whatever your thoughts of our chances on Saturday you should be delighted to be here (a lot of teams didn’t make it this far). If you can’t enjoy it then what’s the point. Bring it on!

Crowley and Zebo won’t want to see that last try again.

Well at least the ticket sales should increase now that Munster supporters will have nothing else to do next weekend. I’m sure they’ll turn in large numbers to support ROG and the boys.

We’re happy to take your money

Every chance I would say. He was water boy last night which is usually a good sign

Psst LL - he’s not awol anymore. He was back last week for the game against Pau and he’s playing tomorrow v Racing

Good to know Xan. Well I’ll still take JGP at the minute. He’s on fire

After the initial messing from both sides our scrum was excellent.

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

Me either. Miserable shower

Should we bother even turning up next week? Just asking cause I’m going to need to take time off so if we’re not bothering…….
