Having seen the impact on refereeing decisions in Toulon on Sunday, IMO it is essential that all true Leinster fans arrive in Aviva next Saturday in full voice and with loud fanatically support for Leinster against Toulon, who remain the only team we have not beaten in European competition, but have never played at home.
How this group of players have been assembled within any salary cap, even the generous one of the Top 14, is beyond explanation, and certainly unbelievable. However, what is more pertinent is that their somewhat smug supporters seek, at every opportunity, to attack the integrity of their opponents and influence the officials.
We suffered badly in this regard in Toulon, and Leinster Rugby now needs the support of all who have been given joy, excitement, or a buzz, over the past 7 years to give it back in spades by a noisy, raucous, one-eyed display of Blues passion next Saturday.
We know, we truly know with certainty, that no Leinster player passes the ball forward, holds the ball on the ground, tackles late, or strays offside. However, we need, as a coherent group to arrive in Aviva next Saturday, aware of our God-given duty, to communicate these certainties to the match officials. That we might also have the chance to carry our team over the line a few times to beat these galacticos, can be considered a special Christmas offer.
See you there!

Re: Calling all Leinster Fans for support v Toulon
good thanks! the winter is a trek, we have two mini seasons effectively, but we have a decent crew of new and experienced players so we're competitive for our league. Plus now we have a pub sponsoring us!!Peg Leg wrote:How's the local team going?tate wrote:I'll be shouting at the telly in the wilds of Hungary - hasnt made a difference so far but you never know!

Re: Calling all Leinster Fans for support v Toulon
We are at Home
We are playing for our pride and as supporters these are the matches where we need to support
Given the number of once a year people we have visiting I will be shouting a little bit louder than usual
i would love to beat Toulon today ........there is something about buying in a whole team of mercenaries I don't like

Sneer all you want, the man has proven himself against a legend of the game. And he's made it look easy.
