Leinster v Scarlets - 25th Jan - RDS - 7.35pm.

errlloyd

Delightful half break for Jack McGrath.

Clegg

It's a good thing Scarlets don't seem to have many good ball carriers.

Inspector Coptoor

How’d the ref and touch judge not see the forward pass there?

Scarlets have Leinster under serious pressure.
Jake Ball making meters every carry.

Buer

Jack McGrath looking like the only test level player on the Leinster side. Head and shoulders above all others in blue.

errlloyd

I feel for McNicholl there. He's right.

Buer

Jammy as anything.

We all realise that the only reason he's on the pitch is to get rid of the rust, right?

I wonder does Joe realise?
Probably....
Right

errlloyd

Great finish, but messy as ****.

Clegg

How in the name of God are we 10 ahead? Scarlets should be at least two scores to the better.

Former Former

ROL did brilliantly there

Blackheath

Loughlin finished very well there

Buer

First start Frawley has had when he hasn't had the ball on a silver platter and it's safe to say he's got a lot of talent but also needs a lot more of these games before he's ready to start in higher intensity matches.

Hopefully he gets another start during the 6N as he'll only get better.

Worrying sights at the leinster kids not completely pulling away before half time

troyzer

Lads, that wind coming off the grand stand is tearing the skin off my balls.

Absolutely freezing. Probably shouldn't be going commando in my kilt.

sydthebeat

Poor Rob is looking really old out there this evening.... Looking unbelievably rusty

Granny15

Doris been the pick of the forwards for me. He always draws in more than one tackler.

HOS very laboured off the base. He's going to have to apply that work ethic to his passing and distribution from the base which has been slow and off target all night.

errlloyd

Ffs Frawley

Buer

Good read from Asquith but a poor pass. Even if Asquith doesn't take the ball, Daly would struggle to take it. He probably got too far ahead to be honest so not all on Frawley.

Unreal...knocked on.

Larbre34

What a plum.

sydthebeat

That's criminal by Asquith

Squidgy Black

That'll be a killer for Frawley's confidence after the Munster intercept.

Squidgy Black

I take that back, what a clown.

Peregrine

Ah, jaysus. It was handed to Scarlets on a platter and they still fecked it up.

errlloyd

You give that to ROL for chasing a lost cause and forcing the early dive. Still unforgivable.

Buer

Leinster need to start using it at scrum. Referee should be warning Doris and HOS.

mangobob

Lol

Buer

Keep it in the scrum lads. No let up.

BobCobb

That was a bit harsh, no?
There looked to be continuous downward pressure from his body on the ball as he went over the line, even if it wasn't in his grasp.

No you could see the ball rolling out of control before he got close to the line.

sydthebeat

Have we the hairiest wingers in the league??

Indeed, it visibly squeezed out of his hand before it crossed over the line and you could see it rolling until he regathered it. It couldn't have been under control if it was rolling.

mangobob

How do you have the experience that Kearney has and still do something like that.

sydthebeat

Scarlets just want to go home

Buer

Naive play. It's a tight game where we are lucky to be ahead and we're trying to go through phases on our own 22.

Deservedly concede 3 poi....never mind.

thomond2006

How on earth have Scarlets not scored?

Squidgy Black

Yikes.

awec

I have never seen a luckier team in my life. You are some jammy gits.

errlloyd

This feels like match fixing at this stage.

Granny15

No Molly Malone tonight?

Clegg

Jaysus.

Who missed that tackle?

sydthebeat

Ah Rob.....

thomond2006

Kearney. Shocker.

awec

Rob... good grief

troyzer

Zebo for Kearney.

Inspector Coptoor

That’s three appalling efforts from
Kearney.

One of them HAD to lead to a try.

Peregrine

Christ. Kearney.

Buer

That's Kearney's Irish spot for the opening game gone I think. Can't start him in this shape.

Clegg

Kearney is demonstrating all the worst aspects of his game today. Lack of athleticism and and poor one on one tackling.

That's utter sh1te from Kearney

Horrific from Kearney.
