Leinster v. Bath Saturday 6pm

Burgo

Any reason why the sky commentators don't say the aviva? Only time i've ever really heard it called "new landsdown".

MungBean

Beaut of a kick.

Burgo

Lovely DG from johnny! 10 - 3.

chupacabra

Sextons drop kicking technique is the best ive ever seen :eek:

thomond2006

Vesty gifts Sexton a chance, but what a kick.

ScrubsfanChris

Cheap penalty at the lineout there

Lein 10 - 6 Bath

thomond2006

That was an appalling cross kick from Donald.

MungBean

Toner is a bit of a penalty machine I think.

thomond2006

Leinster giving away a lot of silly penalties.

ironingbored

Anyone else think that anytime Bath go wide they look like they've got numbers?

Yeah Leinster defence doesnt seem to be drifting out that fast.

Burgo

Leo in the bin

thomond2006

Nice offload from Toner!! Fitzgerald try.

Burgo

Great try, what a break from Toner!

MungBean

Smashing try, great work by Toner. Great man, always said so.

Burgo

Leinster 17 - 6 Bath 25 mins gone.

thomond2006

Sexton playing very well.

Taco Corp

Sexton try!

ScrubsfanChris

Bath are shockingly poor......

Burgo

Try Sexton, 2 tries while down to 14 and our scrum not doing to bad without Leo!

castie

Two tries while down to 14...

Christ Bath going to regret getting on the plane.

ironingbored

Fitz, Sexton, Toner, Heaslip standouts so far. McFadden doing well too.

Wait till Bath see Healy coming on!

Ryan Caldwell is having a great game again.

Only one really impressing I would've said.

castie

Can see bonus by half time.


Oops Cullen ruined the chance of that!

MungBean

Good call by Cullen, take the points stretch the lead and dont force the game. Plenty of time to get the bonus point. Pity Sexton scuffed it.

Burgo

Half time score: Leinster 24 - 6 Bath.

Benny Cake

Bath are shocking..

jasper11

toner and caldwell looking good. pity caldwell has brain the size of a pea cos he has great ability.

Very happy with that side. And yet again it's a class bench to be able to call on. Looking at that side and the A side they've named for LW you can't help but get excited about this season and the next few.

We should be able to pull away from Bath in the first half I reckon. Bath offered very little at home last week all things considered and we kept them in the game when we shouldn't have. The atmosphere and the mistakes from last week should really push the team to perform and I can see us bagging 3 tries in the first half. We can then start bringing on the replacements in the second half. If/once we get the bonus hopefully Madigan will get on. He's progressing well in the Pro12 so it'd be great to start getting him some decent HEC game time too.

Nice prediction!

MungBean

Have to say Sky analysis is brilliant.

Healy's gonna get you

WOW

RuggieBear

what

Am I watching American football?

Burgo

Holy Jebus in a minute!

Guy:Incognito

Great stuff from Fitzgerald

MungBean

Fitz sending Earls a message.

Paparazzo

What happened? This thread is my guide to the match!

kmart6

Good try...but the pass was forward!

MyKeyG

Is anyone else watching on Sky? The picture seems slightly choppy is that the same for everyone?

Benny Cake

31-6 to Leinster, Try Fitzy

Dear Mr. Earls

As you may recall, I gave you a loan of my Ireland no. 11 jersey for a year. As a result, I missed out (fairly) on a place in the World Cup.

Having said all of that, I believe the terms of our agreement are coming to an end and I'm coming to take it back

Regards

Luke Fitzgerald

ScrubsfanChris

Good try, but is was clearly a forward pass from Kearney.

yeah, camera angle suggested a "very flat" pass at best.

Don't forget the relatively backwards wording of the law until we see another angle though.

chupacabra

The glitz and glamour of Dublin contrasted with the "coming out of the soil" of Munster.... Barnes just called Munster people potatoes.

Burgo

Bath down to 14 now.

MungBean

Bath a man down, they are in trouble now. Leinster need to stop overcomplicating it though and just play it wide more often.
