Happy with a losing bonus point???? I'd be appalled if we did the same.

De Allende did nothing all game bar get snotty.....

Had a dirty late hit on Sexton, that's something I suppose.

Hope DK is okay but doesn't look good.

We were really poor in the air, other then the peach Ryan Baird pulled out that he had no right to, lots to improve on.

Munster might have beaten us if they concentrated more on playing rugby rather then trying to do all the cheap stuff, although they would have lost by more if their nonsense was properly reffed. I would be delighted if they continue this nonsense instead of coaching them to play because they look like they have some nice tools to work with.

[Blueberry]

Apologies yes De Allende did try to break Sexton, very creative....

[LeRouxIsPHat]

Considering the length of layoffs, its a testament to both teams how high a standard that game was

Yeah great effort from everyone really. Really difficult start for Munster too with losing Cronin, Kilcoyne, and Snyman, and yet they finished strongly.

Some shift from Jack Conan too and he still looked fresh at the end.

Definite work ons in the lineout and with Larmour’s fielding but that was really impressive and encouraging overall.

[Blueberry]

And was it just me or did the Munster scrum half kick the ball out at the end....

I don’t think Casey was, it looked like he wanted to play on but was under orders not to. Tbf you can imagine that the players were exhausted and playing on might have led to another injury. If players were cramping up it probably wasn’t worth the risk from there.

Ringrose MOTM by a mile, not that it particularly matters.

Ref got those Leinster breakdown pens mainly right but he totally ignored multiple Munster side entries and off their feet offences.

The sooner Toland is canned the better. All that bs about POM's "world class" catches of their own ball was ridiculous

[Blueberry]

Larmour will have a busy week fielding high balls and lineout needs a touch of work but otherwise pretty good....Ringrose was in cracking form and J10 and Conan looked good too....

[Cianostays]

Conan was excellent, thought VDF was very good also. Stander and Farrell were really good for Munster.

Toland is a total joke.....

[Blueberry]

Ferris now talking shite in the studio, seems to have totally forgotten what the maul rule is....

[Blueberry]

World class Munster.......lost again.

[Twist]

I was listening rather than watching, but is it not disappointing that we didnt pull away in the last quarter considering their injuries?

[enby]

McGrath played very well. Lowe needs to sharpen up his defence. That last try was dreadful

[Blueberry]

Lowe has always had brain farts in D, needs work....

Dev's yellow card didn't help. Gave away some daft penalties. Also think we ended up with Deegan on the wing?

[Blueberry]

So hard to judge though as it is really 50% of the game without the crowd....even watching it on the telly.....

And effusive praise of Murray for passing the ball out of rucks.
