I think he sums up Leinster pretty well this season, reckons Leinster will need to play at a level on Saturday that they have maybe only reached once this season.

Worth a read. Toulouse knew they would be starved of possession and had no choice but to play an high-risk off-loading game. Stats from here says it all: https://www.rugbypass.com/news/counter- ... r-leinster
When we were 21-27 up with ten to go....and clearly going for the BP...they got a break with the intercept and took it well to win by a point. Fair play to them. Some days those 50/50 or hail mary offloads come off for you...some days they don't and I think if we stick to the way we played away...and reduce the turnovers....we will come away with a win. I'm not saying they were lucky in the first game..far from it...but I do think we have a more solid and reliable game plan.
