Yup, sums it up for me :smt023

Tbh I have a chuckle to myself when Leinster don’t win anything considering how set up it is for them to clean up
isn't there some sort of tax thing as well to keep Irish internationals home too?

Sorry but if sides want to do a little dance it should be instead of the anthem or prior to the other side coming out of the changing room.

Smith in the bin for deliberate knock on, hmm, not sure I agree but can't argue it either

Ireland turning down 3s in a tight knockout game. Shows the confidence they have.

I'm not so sure.

I've said it before, I just think Ireland may tire.

Their team has significantly more minutes in their first teams legs than any other team. They have played their gun team every time and think that this is their 5th game in 6 weeks, that is a lot with minimal rotation, especially when they get rotated so well for Leinster.

Sorry but I stand by opinion. Rugby has had many traditions over the years respect is one of the main ones the Haka is another Ireland usually having 2 anthems is another (before anyone points it out I know they only had one tonight). I just thought that the attitude of the crowd spoilt a Traditional part of the lead up to what is a good game so far (apart from the very bias commentary. Rant over
