Babbling 'brook

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 th...

Just looking around mad twitter land and a general opinion seems to be that we are "over thinking it" in relation to the selection. Thoughts? Not at all. Have gone up against these lads plenty of times over the last 4 seasons so we know exactly what they offer. Why wouldn't we cut our clo...

Moloney I would have thought.

Baird for first 60, Molony once he comes on

oh yeah. That makes more sense

Excited about Milne too! If he can bring his scrummaging boots he could be a surprise package.

Well there it is. Good Team. I'm happy to go with whatever team JN and Leo pick and hope for the best.

The rest of yis can have at it

I think whatever the team will be, it's going to be ........divisive!

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!
