    The breakdown is an absolute free for all and the Stormers are ahead of the back foot all day.

    Good try.

    It'll now put in the referees head that the Stormers have infringed frequently.

    I thought they changed the rules tonight. The offside line seems to be the hindmost foot of the attacking team.

    "Well, yeah, you know, that's just, like, your opinion, man"

    They should have been carded as well, just because Leinster scored doesn't change the fact that they gave away 4/5 penalties inside there 5m

    One of those situations where you’re glad to get the try, but if we hadn’t Stormers were almost certainly going to get a yellow you’d have thought.

    Conditions are truly atrocious here right now.

    To me, that’s a fairly plucky half from a young Leinster side against a team stuffed with Springboks. LBP should be the target here.

    Game is still winnable with the wind on our backs in the second half, I'd be more confident if it wasn't for that intercept. Scrum has been great just I think we need to try and turnover more ball at the breakdown we're not competing and hopefully Connors can come in and change that.

    Really impressed by the level of physicality we’ve shown with some of our clear outs tonight against a physically huge team.

    Ref missed a blatant neck roll from Stormers two rucks before the Libbok try.

    Or the ref remembers the actual laws as they relate to the breakdown over his half time slice of Orange

    It must be a small silver lining to any Leinster fan, if they do in fact ever loose, that it might motivate them to change that abomination of a song that welcomes the team onto the field.

    Good start to the second half. A good time to get a try could have done with both conversions but tough kicks in the weather.

    I honestly thought Byrne had miskicked that, but he used the breeze to perfection. What a kick for a 50-22

    Leinster's kicking and covering is so good, this will only end up being a home win, imo.

    The **** heart there to chase that back and win the turnover was immense.

    Brilliant brilliant stuff.

    Liam Turner’s Leinster 400m hurdler speed coming in handy there.

    Utterly incredible turnover.

    But we were in their 12 before the intercept and they were right on our line.

    Playing into their hands with our looseness.

    Blatant dirty cheap shot from a guy there who tucked his arm and led with the shoulder.

    What is the TMO looking at there?

    The ref given out about Frawley going down after the hit when it was Russell that was hit in the turnover penalty. Ruddock had to point it out to him

    Would have to see it again but on first view I didn't see anything wrong with that. Fans seem to think otherwise. Cracking game
