    Just got my match tickets for the semi final. Strangely they are in Section 12 of the blue bit of the stadium yet according to the stadium maps there is no section 12?!

    Anyone able to unravel the mystery?


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,053 ✭✭✭Gracelessly Tom


    Leinster (v Edinburgh): I Nacewa; D Kearney, F McFadden, G D’Arcy, F Carr; I Madigan, I Boss; H van der Merwe, S Cronin, N White; D Browne, D Toner; R Ruddock, S Jennings, J Heaslip (c).

    Madigan looks like he's cracking up in that photo.

    If you're unsure as to what Leinster are actually doing to support Bank of Ireland, they have changed the previous English version of Bank of Ireland logo that lies across the chest of the jersey to the new as Gaeilge version. This Photo highlights exactly what I'm referring to.

    I, for one, would like to wish the lovely couple a long and happy civil partnership.

    I'm actually in stitches over those.. I'd say they'll be getting some stick over it.

    That is bizarre... Are you in the €50 section?


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,320 ✭✭✭Teferi


    Just when we were starting to lose the "Leinster ladyboy" slags and all...


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 9,257 ✭✭✭Hagz


    Haha, Sportsfile are after taking down the first picture. It's too late Fitz/Madigan, you must suffer!!!

    Yep, we are indeed. It's very odd, looked at the stadium map on various sites and there appears to be no section 12. The only thing I can think of is we're in the small few rows of seats between 11 and 13.

    That or we're not getting into the ground and it's 1-0 Clermont! :p


  • Registered Users Posts: 711 ✭✭✭chancer12


    Those photos are totally hilarious .... and embarrassing!

    Anyone know the status on Conway? Would have preferred him to Carr for Friday

    Haha! Either that or it really translates into 13, and LR have been given x amount of blocks to fill, numbering them 6 to whatever. I hope that's the case, if it is it looks like there'll be a decent Leinster contingent going, with 5+ blocks filled after 3 days of sales.

    ... or it could be just how LR have numbered them, and we're actually all over the place. :(

    I have heard that all the Lenister fans will be together in the €50 stand (and possibly some other pockets). As far as I know allocation is split 50/50 if both teams want 50% as it's the ERC running the semi's as opposed to the home teams in the 1/4 finals.

    After living in france last year not many of them would fork over €50 for a match ticket! Reckon it'll be Leinster fans in the better seats with Clermont at the ends.

    4 flights and a train to get there plus two nights accomodation and it still works out cheaper than the day trip! Can't wait now, love the auld H Cup away trips!:)

    Yeh I managed to get indirect flights, two nights accom and 50euro match tickets for under 280e. Plenty of change left over for some red wine! :D

    Evening Herald Try of the season nominees are up.
    http://www.herald.ie/sport/rugby/vote-for-the-evening-herald-leinster-try-of-the-season-3076528.html

    For a team try, O'Driscoll's was very slick, Fitzgerald's was a joy to watch considering the tough times he was going through, great individual try.
    Personally I voted for Madigan's just because I thought it was a fantastic solo try and the award will after all go to one man.

    You can vote as many times as you wish.

    The BOD will win comfortably I feel...

    Nope. Ye would be whingin if he wasnt kicking to the corner all the time!

    On a serious note he kicked a restart out on the full. So you wouldn't want him at all at all.

    An unforgivable offence !

    I remember when Sexton did it against Wales. That was the moment I decided that I want ROG at 10 until he's at least 48 :D


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,889 ✭✭✭tolosenc


    Actually, now that I think of it, Leinster are playing above international standard right now.


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,207 ✭✭✭durkadurka


    There are very few teams in the galaxy that can live with Leinster at the moment .

    Apart from clermont.
