1. The group of Leinster players that will tog out this Saturday hasn’t played a competitive game in a number of weeks and may be a bit battle ‘soft’.
2. Home advantage seems to suit at this stage of the competition and I think the way the game is going the colour of the cards could dictate the outcome of this fixture.
3. Finally Raynal is the ref. I know he got lambasted for how he reffed England v Ireland but he seems to always favour the forward moving scrum regardless of its legality.
It is disappointing to hear that it isn’t sold out yet. I also hear that only 30k tickets (capacity is 52k) have been sold for the Munster v Toulouse game. The powers that be tend to forget that this is an expensive time of the year for season ticket holders as they renew for next year and also have to cost in travelling to away games. Shave 10% of the price of a ticket and encourage more school kids to attend and you’ll fill stadiums.
Looking forward to Saturday. You’ll hear me before you see me!!! I hope the best team wins!
