Yep, it's a big win because of that.
If we get past Leicester & Munster/Toulouse we'll be able to rest everyone.
Might not sell too many tickets albeit.

You’re hardly surprised by that.
Agree with you, there were a number of points in the 2nd half where they could have dropped off but refused to do it.

Im usually a fan of both comms but continuously thinking that Deeney had given away a penalty in the first half after a tackle by himself and Penny when it was actually Murphy and Russell was also really poor.

That's because you're interested and you care. Neither phrase apply to RTE commentators talking about Leinster.Laighin Break wrote: ↑April 30th, 2022, 7:39 pmI was watching it on my tablet.

There was one scrum in particular where I think Kitshoff was trying to get the screw on Vakh and the fricking power of the guy he just shunted it off. He's a f**king ox, and I mean that in the nicest way possibleRuckedtobits wrote: ↑April 30th, 2022, 7:59 pm So many good things from those too games. Really excited about some of the talent and all of the resistance. In absolute awe with Russell's try-saving tackle and his pace in closing down Sinalta. Osbourne's wrap tackle, on their flanker over the line was sensational.
In the past, I sometimes considered Soroka a little bit of a show pony. Never again, his heart is on his sleeve only because it's too big to hide. What a competitor. In 7 years time, he'll be playing the Rhys role for another bunch of Academy players.
Ed Byrne was also phenomenal and played himself to a standstill whilst conceding nothing to a Springbok World Cup winner. Milne & Vahk were great scrum finishers and really fought for every yard.
Agree with all the positive sentiments re McKee, Murphy, Dunne, Penny and Moloney & O'Brien. I hope Rhys only came off to rest before benching next week. What a fortnight he's put in.
Really proud of all the Squad that travelled to SA. They really represented us very well and gave our Club the best chance of beating Leicester.
If you were impressed by Soroka's efforts this evening, support his fund raising for a Ukrainian orphanage on "GoFundMe"wixfjord wrote:What a legend. Hope this lad has a long Leinster career.

Dunno how many people saw his full post game interview on Premier Sports, brilliant, he did a Dan Sheehan on it...Laighin Break wrote: ↑April 30th, 2022, 8:15 pm Just saw on Twitter that Soroka was awarded Player of the Match! Well deserved
