2 things

1. form goes out the window for this game
2. the bookies rarely get caught with their trousers around their ankles

i agree with outwide. the munster players arent going to let this one go. leicester fans better prepare themselves for the atmosphere. it is so much more intense than welford road!! and ye all better be quiet for kicks, or ye will have me to answer to!! lol.

Welford Road is always quiet for kicks, and believe me, anyone who makes a sound there gets hushed, hissed and generally squashed into silence - I'm certain Tigers fans will accord your kickers the same respect. (we're not French, you know ;) )

Orla, come the end of the match, you and the other Munster fans will be just as quiet!

But not the Tigers fans!!

You Munster fans had better prepare yourself for the ferocity of our forwards. You think that you have a decent pack, wait until you see Castro, Moody and Cozza steam into you on Saturday.

...forgot to mention the ferocity of the backs also...bring it on !! I'm particularly looking forward to Moody vs O'Gara, Ellis vs Stringer and watching Tuilagi bulldozing his way to the line.

Thing to remember is that although they are unbeaten in the HC and Thommond Park, they've been beaten there in the Magners League a few times - quite convincingly by Edinburgh I believe in November!

We will be our worst enemies before the match - we can't be intimidated, we have to KNOW that Munster are beatable.

of course we are beatable, every team is.

We'll see about that

What I mean is like when England went unbeaten for however many matches at Twickenham. Most teams that went there probably felt deep down that they couldn't win, and Ireland were the first team to really shrug off the mentality.

I just hope Tigers can do that at Thommond Park - and I think they will!

I beleive Leicester can beat Munster if they can do what only a few visiting teams have done at Thomond Park that is prevent Munster from building up a big half time lead in most of their home games Munster have the game won by half time . Two of the toughest games Munster have ever had at home in the Heineken Cup have been against Welsh teams Newport last season and Cardiff this season both made Munster fight for every inch until the final whistle because they never let Munster build up a early lead . If Leicester do the same on saturday it is game on . if they do not the game could be over at half time

I TOLD YOU SO IF YOU DONE THE RIGHT THINGS RIGHT IN THE FIRST HALF ... MUNSTER 6 LEICESTER 13[/list]
