If I had the opportunity to watch that again, I would pay big money to do so in front of the two preening red fans who sat behind the wife and I. [Not a jibe at Munster fans, just those 2]. A couple in their 50's threw out some classics as:
"I can't believe they think they're supporters and they don't arrive early enough to watch the warm ups" and "they probably don't know the names of all the players".

They were probably right.

By any chance does anyone have those 2 2009 victories over Munster recorded? Full match. Would love to add them to my collection. Also the victory v Clermont in 2012 semi.

And gambling's for fools,
But that's the way I like it baby, I don't want to live FOREVER!

2014 Pro12 final vs Glasgow is an underrated gem I think.
The sport that unites Catholic, Protestant and dissenter has had its day of days. Pity anybody who can't enjoy it. Some day.

Leinster's MO'C game against Northampton (think Drico's pass through his legs) is certainly one worth enjoying again. But for the full package, the games where Nathan Hines and Brad Thorn helped win S/F and Finals are the real deal. Leinster in its pomp, up front and out back.

I must say I always have good memories of beating Gloucester in LR. I think it was 05/06 or 06/07. Some nice tried that day and Stephen Keogh had a stormer.

This is a bit like the "what would your last meal on earth be" question. The answer is, basically, always fresh bread and butter :) but you talk yourself into overthinking it and start throwing steaks and lobsters and burdocks into the equation.

The answer is the second half of the 2011 final.

And 07/08 I think when Leinster best Munster 21-15 I think in a rain soaked rds. No tries scored from either team and sexton was excellent and MOM if I recall correctly. One if the wettest games from the north stand in memory.

You have to watch the first half to truly appreciate it though.

Keogh was a criminally underrated player.
