Is there a case for playing all 4 Byrnes and all 3 Kearneys? Means you can't play both McGraths though

Sounds like the lads were back at it hard last week, Conan interview:

But it’s nice to be back at Leinster and to focus all our attention on blue. We trained hard last week, Stuart [Lancaster] seriously put us through our paces and it was a tough few days, but I think lads are firing on all cylinders now and they’re fit and chomping at the bit for this weekend.

Leinster may well be favourites but by 20 points, don't think so.
I'd be happy with a win.
Main reason for caution is Sexton and his Ulster play him.

SOB is starting at 7. Leavy is on the bench.

Leinster are -15 points / Ulster +15 points currently with various bookies.

Suppose that makes sense in a way. It means the team was picked last week before Leavy played and they had a session or two together to get ready for Ulster. I disagree with it, but can see the logic.

I know the non internationals would have been around more, but I'm even happier now with how we performed in Edinburgh given that we must have spent a fair bit of last week focusing on Ulster.

Imagine all 4 Byrne brothers playing in a Champions Cup Quarter Final

Even with my Ulster bias, I think the bookies are being kind there. I think there's a strong possibility of a cricket score.

What's the policy on betting against your own team? Is that bad form?

i'm confident, which is making me nervous.

Just want to see the teams being named now..

He is nearly always wrong. I'll have a look at the teams before deciding on whether to take the spread. I'm tempted at 15 points.
