Tekori will not be banned. Nothing that you could have seen last sunday has never existed.

French rugby has only have 4 deads this year.

Tekori is okay for sunday according to the decision (my french isn't great...but they deemed that it didn't warrant a red card..google translated version of the decision below...
Mr. Iosefa TEKORI made the best efforts to perform a regular tackle by stooping
and using his arms,
• his opponent in the position to score a try went down at the same time,
This is a mitigating factor in terms of the red card test criteria.
The player is therefore qualified to participate in the semi-final of the Champions Cup.

Last season when there was 48k in the Aviva for the semi?

But my point was the stadium was nearly full for the semi last season!

So if many Leinster fans aren't going on Sunday, then that will be different to Scarlets last year.
There are currently less than 5,000 tickets available on Ticketmaster - unless they 'hid' some to make it look like there's more demand

I was on there earlier...selected the 1 ticket filter for the full price range and it only came back with 276 available tickets. Where/How did you determine the 5k? Not a biggy...am just surprised it is not a sellout.

That's a disgrace.

I know Holmes was given a red at the time and served a week before his hearing took place, but the difference between the two decisions is a joke.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=STOIQPgMGgo about 2:40 into the highlights is the Tekori tackle. I have seen Owen farrell get away with much worse...not even a yellow.
Regardless of the decision....he is in on sunday now.

They've clearly hid all remaining available tickets for one half of the stadium, and left the remaining ones available on the other half of the stadium which happens to be the side that all TV cameras face at.

I have more faith in the young second row options personally, so I'd leave Fardy out this time. That may sound like heresy to some though.
Unless Molony is suddenly over his back issues and cleared fit, there are no young second row options registered.
As I understand it, we can register someone this week. Or we could have anyway. We should have regardless. It's mad not to have a 4th choice lock registered. What if there was an injury to one of the three on the weekend? Why not deregister Mick Kearney one way or another?

It's prediction time.
Leinster to win by 10+ points.
OR
Toulouse to Breaklouse.
What say you?
What say the bookies?
How many points is Sexton worth to the overall result.

What say the bookies?
It's 10+ pour moi, 10- if Sexton doesn't play.

Red and a substantial ban all day long for me, awful decision, this type of cheap shot has to be treated severely - it was an atrocious 'tackle'......anyway no point crying over spilt milk - let James Ryan loose on him....

Lowe would be great to have and would start, but we have 3-4 guys who can play on the wing instead of him.
We need the other two.

Now JGP being unfit would change things.
I was just thinking that I wouldn't be shocked if DK got the start regardless of JGP's fitness. Dave has played well recently and obviously played in the QF (and came up with a huge moment with the Stockdale dropped ball) and then last week's back three selection had the look of us trying to prepare for this week. I'm not 100% certain that that would change if JGP was injured.
Maybe so, but if JGP is out, then I just don't see us wanting to leave out the attacking threat of Lowe, for all of DK's form. He just offers so much going forward. It's a moot point though until we find out if that knee brace rumour was true!
Agree - if JCB ain't fit JLO starts and we start praying to Fatima that Luuukeeeeee plays for 80 !!

That’s exactly what it looks like - the pattern of sales is very suspect

Indo saying JGP out Lowe in.

Meanwhile, James Lowe is in line to start for Leinster in their semi-final against Toulouse on Sunday (3.15).

An injury to Jamison Gibson-Park has opened the door for the brilliant Kiwi winger to return to the side along with Johnny Sexton.

Jaysus, needing HOS to bench in a Euro SF isn't a great spot to be in.

Albeit that's a serious starting backline now, probably our best. Lowe gives us something that not many others do.

That's a shocker, was a red card all day long. At least in the Pro 14, Mr Whitehouse's awful call to only give Benvenuti a yellow was shown to be wrong. He got 2 week ban, deemed a red.
