Unless you misread, that was a massive rick. 7/2. Hope you got on!

Edit: Toulouse -11.5 are 12/1 if that's what you saw?

You answered this yourself, Spreads move based on smart money coming in.

Pretty sure everyone thinks their money is 'smart' until the results come in.

stephen_n · 11-01-2019 1:34pm

So we are missing
MCGrath
Toner
Leavy
Sexton
Henshaw
Lowe
Kearney

Not to mention SOB.

That’s a serious missing list.

Is toner a meath man?

Clegg · 11-01-2019 1:36pm

I would have preferred Frawley on the bench instead of Reid. He can cover 10, 12 and 15 and is just a more physical player.

Thermoman12 · 11-01-2019 1:41pm

Can anyone name a team with just people from D4?

Quint2010 · 11-01-2019 1:42pm

This game is on live on Virgin if anyone has it.

It sure is!
Outside backs are not a cohesive unit.
I would describe Leinster as callow at 12, 14, 19, 22 & 23.
Competent at 9&10.
Toulouse 9-15 are tried and tested in comparison.

Leinster pack will have to win this.
Interesting that they have stuck 6’10” Arnold straight in at lock. Good luck Cronin!

Lads all will go well. Just get COB in the centre for the match day team and he will run a mock

A mock what?

I'd rather he ran amok through the opposition but unless they have the tackle skills of that dreadful Ulster rabble it's unlikely.

I was worried it was Rory, but it's his less good twin brother, Richie.

Actually, those are the odds to win the cup outright. My mistake

Not a bad team but the weakest of the three you named in my opinion. Trying to think of Loosehead prop will wreck my head now lol

I know Reid isn't popular but he was very good away to Bath. Doesn't exactly deserve dropping. And whilst Frawley has been good he made some very silly mistakes against Ulster, missed touched from penalties x2 and threw a few poor passes, can't do that in a game like this.

Flipping Hell. He has a twin!
I didn’t know what you were on about.. thought it was Richie Gray or something

Managed to snag decent tickets for the match tomorrow through work, Block C of Anglesea stand. Haven't been to a game at this hour on a Sat in donkeys, will some of the pubs open a bit earlier?

The reality is, not many people live in D4, it is not as densely populated with the big houses and office blocks.

Buer · 11-01-2019 2:24pm

So down 6 of the recent Irish first choice 23 plus James Lowe. Good christ. Did not expect Kearney and McGrath to be out.

Tomorrow will either be a defeat or one of those seminal moments when a number of players stake a claim to be Leinster front liners.
