If you look at things logically, it would look like the Munster online presence is larger than the Leinster one.
Just compare the forum for each club. The Munster one has far more activity than this one.
A good example is the match thread for both teams for this weekends games. Right now the Munster match thread on Munsterfans has 50% more posts than the Leinster one has on here.
Additionally, Munster matches topped the viewership numbers last season by some distance.
With the onset of social media based media coverage, podcasts and online articles, media outlets can measure the number of hits articles get.
If the media is more Munster centric, it is probably as a result of Munster related media gaining more traffic than Leinster related media.
Saying all that, I would much rather Munster beat Leinster on the field rather than in column inches.
Congratulations on topping your pool.
