I enjoy listening to Stringer, both as a co-comm and a pundit

I don't think he said anything inaccurate or biased. We have given away an absolute bucket load of super-dumb penalties that, along with stupid mistakes, let Edinburgh off the hook numerous times

This league is less competitive than the SPL was when Rangers were in the lower divisions

Fair play to Kelleher, he had been very solid the last few games and deserved to get on the scoresheet.

Hugh O’Sullivan is a clone of Luke McGrath. Took me ages to realise McGrath had been subbed off.

Mixed performance, but again all too easy.

JOB looks ready for a shot at a higher level.

Penny was excellent also.

Great to see Dan looking so powerful and piling through the work. Lots to like, bit sloppy at times but really hard to know when your opposition are so poor !! McGrath looking very sharp too and JOB is class act.

Still impressed by the hunger and the skills, opposition maybe poor but our second half was very good. Think a lot of top teams in other leagues missing their internationals would have struggled against us tonight, plenty of big performances. Well done, Leinster.

Bottom line is we have screwed it up !! Too good.

Leinster's toughest game in this league is against ourselves at training every week....

I know we have had this debate to the ends of the earth here before and yes I know the Premiership is a pain but a total reorg of Irish and British club rugby is badly needed. Less teams, higher quality and a Britain and Ireland Top 14 or similar is about the only way forward in my mind. Italian teams can plug into the French system.

There are simply too many sh*t club teams in the existing structure.

Politics of a solution though would be interesting to say the least.....minefield but if it isn't tackled we are going to have endless seasons of dross ahead of us.

If you take Leinster out of the equation its probably the most competitive league in the world in any sport in the history of sport and I include blood sports in that just in case anyone was asking.

Seriously though, whats wrong with being the best eh?

Nobody else seems to have a problem with it.

How can you enjoy victory if you haven't been rogered from pillar to post first.
You know I'm going to lose,
And gambling's for fools,
But that's the way I like it baby, I don't want to live FOREVER!
