Babbling 'brook

Watching the replay. This little bit pisses me off. Our scrum was so dominant. We had them going back at a rate of knots and popping up and the ref was saying he would not give a penalty because we were looking for it. We were looking for it because it usually was a penalty. He nullified our threat...

Tickets are on sale on Wasps website.

Sorry to see Joe announce that he is leaving, but happy to support his decision to focus upon his family. He was the best coach ever - his transformation of Leinster and Ireland into winners has been phenomenal, and has brought so much pride and pleasure to us fans. Thanks for everything and please ...

Can't help thinking that this should have been picked up by the coaches, and a message passed to Rhys to let the ref know about it. Do they not do real-time video analysis to see what's going wrong / where space exists / etc? If not they should.

Re. the Wasps game - we should know by late December if there is an OLSC transport option from Ricoh to Birmingham Airport. If not, I'm happy to get numbers in early January for a minibus and make a booking - shouldn't be too late at that stage. The price of the flight is still fairly low at €47 so ...

Just booked the 19.55 flight from Birmingham to Dublin on Sun 20th after the Wasps game for £20 wondering if there are enough of us on this for the OLSC to possibly consider running a bus to the airport after the game ?. I'm on that flight...was thinking of jumping in a taxi Sent from my SM-G930F u...

That's a very strong Leinster squad.

Interesting that James Lowe is the only NIQ in the starting 15, and he becomes IQ in 2 years. 13 of the starting 15 are capped senior Irish international players (Deegan only capped at U20 level so far).

These really are special times for Leinster supporters.

Still on a high after that season. Absolutely brilliant stuff from everyone involved. Great send off for all the departing players, especially Isa. For me, the 4th star will be a little brighter than the other three. Maybe it is the scalps that we took en-route, maybe the way we played in many games...

Munster are moving from a province to an IRFU controlled franchise.

I'd be shocked if the IRFU don't pay up after all the issues Ulster have had, but it really is ridiculous that this wasn't sorted before deciding that McFarland was their man. I'm sure Carbery has been made plenty of promises, but the idea that he'd move in these circumstances is nuts. Maybe the IR...

Map is working fine for me, and there seems to be a reasonable selection available.

No family ticket option available, so kids tickets are full adult price. Thanks EPRC - must be more of what the fans want!

I presume Plug was the spark for this. Should lead to more phases in our play, as we make the hard meters.

Poster on Saracens forum says he was wearing an arm brace before the Ireland game in Twickenham, and when asked when he would be ready to play again he said "weeks".

On face of it that makes it unlikely that he will feature in the QF.

We are a better team, and playing at home. Only concern is that Sarries will potentially be hungrier, if Leinster are still being dazzled by their shiny 6N medals. Sarries will be out for revenge, and to distance themselves from England's disastrous 6N campaign. If we are mentally right at kick off,...

True Leinster and Ireland hero. So many highlights. So much success.

Best of luck Jamie in your future projects; no doubt you will be as successful as you were in the blue and green jerseys.

Best attended the trial in Belfast on order of the court as a character witness. The IRFU said before the national team press conference, that there would be no comment forthcoming on said trial due to the legalities and asked the journalists not to enquire about it. Some eejit from the Spindo woul...

Important game for us tonight. A real test of strength of depth of the squad, as we probably only have one player (Fardy) starting from our first choice 15. Maybe McFadden too, based upon recent form. Edinburgh will be well up for the game, as they need to keep their momentum going as well, and will...
