Re: Leinster v Northampton 19/12 1PM
Think things will be a lot easier in the second half, Saints clearly had the wind at their back.
Surprised that the ref didn't go penalty try for the offside and held up on Porter at the end. If the player wasn't offside it's doubtful he would have held up Porter.

When we next lose a game, it'll be because a team keeps turning us and kicks to the corners. Our lineout is a massive vunerability

Yeah, doesn’t look like we have huge confidence in the line out right now. I think we’ve gone to the front in all but one where we went to the middle on Northampton’s line.CiaranIrl wrote:When we next lose a game, it'll be because a team keeps turning us and kicks to the corners.

Having said that, we’ve won all of our ball and one of theirs, so maybe keeping it simple for now is the best thing to build some confidence.

Think the loss of JOB his had a big impact on our speed of line pass in the back line. It’s no coincidence that the moment he went off our back line potency changed. Says so much about how good he has been for us at 15
Re: Leinster v Northampton 19/12 1PM
100%. Keenan is brilliant, but a different threat from 15 and not as much of a playmaker.Theleinsterlad wrote: ↑December 19th, 2020, 1:59 pm Think the loss of JOB his had a big impact on our speed of line pass in the back line.

JOB becoming an important cog in our attack.

I’m more concerned about the ads for erectile dysfunction on BT...hope they’ve got the wrong target market.

I think it must be the biggest priority within Leinster at the moment our serious weekends at the line out. I’m saying that I don’t think refs do teams any favours either in how the ref that areaSerb wrote: ↑December 19th, 2020, 1:59 pmYeah, doesn’t look like we have huge confidence in the line out right now.

They can now actually target TV ads based on your browsing history and other data, so I'd be worried.

Points difference will be important. We need to pull away here.

Didn’t like that from the winger, no attempt to bind.

Re: Leinster v Northampton 19/12 1PM
The ref is very poor also
Re: Leinster v Northampton 19/12 1PM
What are we at?! Everything is so frantic and unnecessarily rushed. We've a 10 point lead and a huge wind. Just use it.
Trying to push everything and we're bringing them into the game.
This is an example of when our lack of faith in scrum and lineout becomes a huge issue. Should be tightening up here.
