Right - its 5am, its raining in Dublin and its far too dark to be wearing sunglasses. But who cares - this is what it is all about, that trophy, this game and todays merry band of supporters who are probably more awake and certainly more drunk than me.
To all of you that made it over there - Congratulations. The fans that remain at home salute you all, but we are really jealous! Give it socks lads & lassies you are part of a travelling mob making Leinster History - give it your all - you know that the team appreciate the support & they have promised 100% as well.
I hope that the ATC strike did not inconvenience too many, planes, trains, automobiles and whatnot will see you all through.
Enjoy the game, we will meet them on the terraces -and we will WIN!
(Oh by the way, will someone tell us what a pitch with grass looks like
