some pretty poor stuff this half.

Leinster must have improved a lot. I've only seen the last 10 mins or so, and all I've seen are Leinster running at Munster, who are conceding loads of pens. Two tries for Leinster too, 21-15 now to Munster.

[mildlyinterested]

yeah much improved recently, although sloppy 4 mins or so

26-22 to Munster, sloppy game but it was a young leinster side.

I like the look of Patterson at 9 and Hawkshaw looked very good when he moved into 10.

Key factor for me was Leinster were a collection of players who had not played as a team together - ever. Probably not even on a training pitch given the last fortnight of injuries at senior level. Basics improved during game but in general they were just trying to mark their oppositie number rather than playing together.

A 'misnomer' for an 'A Team' fixture and terribly timed. Should have been played before the Senior match a fortnight ago, possibly in Dooradoyle. Crazy timing by both Provinces or the IRFU. A sop to AIL Clubs, but served nobody's purposes.
