    Leinster looking lethargic and weak

    How did they ever decide to play a final on this pitch way too tight!

    That would've been an all timer Heineken Cup try if Dupont had stayed in.

    I'll wait until Leinster have a spell in possession before I start weighing in on how it'll play out.

    Finding a lot of space, blitz not working well so far

    Very harsh penalty there

    Carley is giving both 9s ages at the back of the ruck.

    Great counter-ruck there. Osbourne not having a great start at all

    Appalling start.

    No structure to the attack at all. Osborne isolating himself as a result.

    So? It's still comfortably a legal sized pitch under the laws.

    Come on Carley, you blew Osbourne straightaway and let them away twice there with bodies flopping on the wrong side.

    Ahki has started poorly. Noped out of the restart and a bad read to let Lowe through.

    Tolouse tackler doesn't release, two other players come in from the side, and Carley penalized Leinster. Standard.

    Attempted catch - not even a cousin to a slap into touch.

    Leinsters handling is woeful. They could have 2 or 3 tries if they were accurate

    Timing just seems a little off in running lines, passes getting pulled back too far at killer times. Settle and the tries will come.

    Toulouse leaking a lot of penalties in their own 22.

    Take the three points.

    Every single ruck there's at least one player lying on the wrong side.

    Leinster don't look to have a lot of ideas in attack, the garryowen is their main weapon. 3 points here should help settle them
