Bizarre tactic as we look decent when we have the ball. What happened to the leinster team that used to build 30-40 phases?

Toland has been banging on about Munster playing down the clock since about the 45th minute Terrible commentator.

Munster have improved a good bit this year but we’d have won this by 10+ with our team / form of 2018-2019. The drop off this year is quite marked

Well, that’s the difference between the teams imo. Munster have an excellent defence but really no attack to talk of. We just need to not hand out three pointers and we should be good.

Truly believe Keenan is becoming one of the finest FBs in Europe. Impressed with Molony in this game too.

Zero errors and value add on almost every involvement. He doesn’t LOOK like a world class player but another season like this and he’s up there

The drop in quality of their Box kicks when Murray went off took a lot of pressure off us. Casey kept over kicking. Henshaw was our best player, great performance

He doesn't look the quickest but he really is a joy to watch ball in hand. Such a balanced runner. He's also becoming really reliable under the high ball.

Good win. Once again we had that little bit more in attack.

It doesn't mask what was a pretty poor performance, but we'll take that.

Lads did we manage to get into the air while chasing a box kick once in that game? I didn’t see it if we did. We need to be competitive in the air. Great set piece try and great game from Henshaw.

the biggest robbery of a team from Munster by a team from Leinster since the 94 All Ireland Hurling Final.

Lots and lots not to like, but hats off to Keenan (the best fullback in Ireland no doubt) and Luke did very well in the last 20 mins to get some tempo going. Good little cameo from Ross as well.

That was very satisfying in the end after the poor start, some dodgy decisions and the awfully one-eyed commentary.

Kicking was very poor throughout though. Henshaw was brilliant. Good to see Larmours dancing feet at their best but really needs to work on the aerials.. Really impressed with Kelleher coming on, v happy for him nailing what were all pressure lineouts. Keenan quietly excellent and nice touch for try. Healy quiet again..
