Has anyone received communication from Leinster Rugby re how/ when season ticket holders can buy tickets thanks

Looking for 1 ticket for the game for daughter big Leinster fan albeit engaged to a big Munster fan!

No luck today nor any of my friends. Is the real problem/ issue that the Aviva is too small at c. 52K capacity for a Champions cup final with Leinster in it.

I see Matt Williams has La Rochelle favourite to win their second star interesting as he had us as firm favourites last year

Reports on Twitter of James Ryan wearing protective boot at match today. Anyone see this ?

No luck in lottery and same for my 4 friends who entered. Very disappointing

Also looking for 2 tickets for final. Have entered the season ticket holders lottery but not too optimistic.

Newstalk match preview with Alan Quinlan. It certainly ruined my breakfast Jesus I’m nervous enough

Henshaw doubt for tomorrow

Lyon scrum looked very strong yesterday. Hope Tadhg Furlong recovers in time.

Last thing you want away in France is a struggling set piece.

Only other change is maybe Luke McGrath. Passing not as crisp or accurate as Gibson Park.

Am worried for Robbie Henshaw.

Illness or hamstring twinge ????

Any mention of Johnnny ?

Squad depth really being tested with injuries mounting up :
Henshaw
Ringrose
Henderson
Toner
Beirne
Marmian
McGrath L
Conway
Leavy
Stander

Team picked offers best options available but a great performance required to beat Scots. Good start essential on saturday.

Will Joe look at Robbie again at fullback hopefully playing with a little more go forward ball than saturday. Is SOB really a number 8 , not sure ! Start Conan with JVD ( massive tackle count last saturday) and bring SOB on for 30 minutes at full tilt. Chris Farrell in at 13 natural position. Team m...

Very good . Like the backstop hopefully it wont be needed on saturday !!!

'Henshaw is just too good not to be on the pitch'

I think you have hit the nail on the head here. He definitely has the raw material to offer another option to Rob K at at full back.

Rob is no more finished but I can definitely see the merit in trying Robbie at full back .

Idiotic statement

Hmm it is only an opinion . Maybe Rob is injured or maybe Joe is thinking along the same lines. Maybe not quite an idiotic statement after all.

Sorry but disagree Rob is a weak link in Irish back line offers very little going forward and misses too many tackles.
