    Apparently you can headlock tackle without issue now.

    Don't understand how it wasn't called back by the TMO

    Another penalty at the breakdown. We've had this problem for a long time now.

    Or the deliberate knock on, or Deegan getting tackled at the back of that scrum.

    Leinsters attack through the backline looks very promising. Playing with good depth and pace and Ospreys have to stand off for fear of the offload. But we really tighten up far too much in the 22 and get little momentum.

    Lovely kick through from Ross Byrne and good finish by Lamour to get there. Good play overall

    Great score there.

    Multiple different first receivers, good lines ran and a great kick from Byrne.

    Osborne just smashed a kick from well inside his own 22 into the Ospreys 22.

    I’m a bit behind but ref’s been poor, who is it out of interest? That Rhys Webb headlock tackle and Deegan incident but also clear ‘in from the side’ by I think Tracy in the phase before Larmour’s try.

    Leinster playing some good stuff at times tho

    Leinsters work in the Ospreys 22 has been patchy. Too much bashing at the line rather than spreading the ball wide. Ospreys have actually defended well there, but Leinster haven't changed it up.

    That was an ok first half performance. Backs look very dangerous with ball in hand. The Byrnes are switching position quite frequently and doing well in the dual playmakers roles. Lots of pace and good lines being ran.

    But we've been very sloppy in Ospreys 22 and should have had the bonus point try scored by 30 minutes. We've been too narrow in attack and All the possession but not enough to show for it imo.

    Ospreys will eventually have a strong spell in the game, so we need to be further ahead.

    For the love of god can we stop firing those flat passes with a defender right in our face in this weather.

    Back my hoop. That's as much of a yellow card as Finn Russell's was.

    Brace and Neville made a hames of that decision.

    The question and view of the try was wrong therefore he couldn't award the try.

    Such a bull call he had to be over the line there to ground and then this stupid goal line drop after being held up. Such a stupid rule
