MAULAGE!!

LuckyGent88

Lovely stuff. Good to get points from the territory we have had

Munster are playing a good game plan. Its just the silly unforced turnovers are killers.

But was also over the line and out of play when he released the ball. Look at it again. Only question is weather he released it after he crossed the the touch line or the in goal area.

It doesn't matter unless he was grounded. If he was on top of Zebo he was not unless an arm or leg was.

Well then make that point, though while he was over the line, he was on top of another player as well, so unless some part of him was touching the ground on or past the line (and perhaps his foot was in slow motion, but his torso was not in touch until it hit the ground) then he and the ball were still in play.

ffs ringrose

Mahatma Geansai

Ringrose. The great white hope of Irish rugby. :pac:

case885

He will have nightmares of that fumble

Diabhal Beag

Ringrose thought way too long on that grounding.

leakyboots

Tweet that BOD!

LuckyGent88

Got away with that. Beautiful kick from sexton

stephen_n

Jesus we could regret that

leakyboots

Wonderful kick through by Sexton, has to be said

ScrubsfanChris

Why is it not a 22 drop out?

Clegg

Mistake aside Ringrose has been excellent.

irishbucsfan

He is still the Messiah

TICKLE_ME_ELMO

I don't know if there's better acoustics at the Aviva or what but I can hear so much more of what the players are saying today. Loving the "aaaarrgggghhhhhhhhh" coming from the scrums

leakyboots

WTF were we doing running from our own line

Like some sort of Connacht.

Adbrowne

POM off his feet and ref gives a scrum?

stephen_n

That's a penalty ref not a scrum

Clegg

Leinster had five men out wide who could've scored but went route one for 3 or 4 phases.

They're butchering this game. Should be Niles ahead.

razorblunt

That was a great line from Nacewa, unlucky for him it was Stander he ran into.

ThisRegard

Why the call on Leinster to use it at that maul when it was still progressing?

leakyboots

Stander's defence has been awesome in the game

And he wasn't even off his feet!

ScrubsfanChris

Two possibly try saving tackles from CJ there.

After that knock on, he's not the messiah, he's a very naughty boy.

6 international backrows on the pitch, they all should be good defensively

TICKLE_ME_ELMO

Who called the ref a "****ing eejit" there?

scott1974

Ref keeps saying "off your feet" and not penalising..

well the ref told him he was, so why go for scrum?

case885

"****ing eejet" 😅

ThisRegard

Bleedin interference ref.

Clegg

Munster's defence is quite poor.

Leinster are making yards whenever they get runners into the ball.

budhabob

Such a simple try, very weak defense by munster

LuckyGent88

A bit too easy unfortunately. Sweetnam just in a little early

leakyboots

Good hands there

corny

Thats shocking defending. You have to trust Murray is going to take Sexton and drift onto Nacewa.

razorblunt

Ah Sweetnam needed to hit Nacewa there not just take the tackle, any sort of boot on the line would have done.

ScrubsfanChris

Aw Stweetnam, that was poor.

clsmooth

Sweetnam sucked in. Poor defence. McGrath attacked the line well

AlfaZen

Try alright from Isa but worth a look his feet might have touched the line?

wp_rathead

3 on 2 overlap done well by Leinster for the try

stephen_n

Poor defence from Munster but excellent from Isa

Adbrowne

great play from Isa, heard the ref say carried back so kicked the ball off the munster lad for the leinster lineout

LuckyGent88

Well done sweetnam.

wp_rathead

Great hassling by young winger

Clegg

Was that Earls Ringrose just turned into his bitch?

leakyboots

Lads the knockons are killing us
