Nice try for the Scarlets there. Some great offloading with very little room. Is it just me or has Stoddard stopped being so selfish, also impressed with his defense on the wing.
Well, Scarlets defense went to sleep for 5 mins, and Leinster level it again. Ajuwa really needs to learn to keep his width on defense, because he's been out of position for both tries now. Some good play by Leinster though, recycling ball well and working for the two tries.
Was O'Brien playing 8?
If so he had a blinder, very good match by him.
Thought D'arcy played well (was it his crossfield for their first try?) same with McFadden
Yep. He had a fantastic game despite playing out of position.
It was Sexton who kicked to Horgan for the first try. He also had a hand in Leinster's 3rd try when a great flat pass set Horgan free. Other than that he was awful.
Sexton was awful he was the reason why we lost the game. Lets hope he's better next week. 3 tries to 1 is a good result considering all the players just coming back from internationals and the amount of injuries for Leinster. O'Brien and McFadden were both impressive. O'Malley, Horgan and Necewa had good matches aswell. Scarlets have really imrpoved especially their defence (I didn't know their defence coach was Easterby).
Snoop I agree O'Brien in great form but think he like Johne Murphy in way position versatility is effecting his chances. Like he played 8 tonight and alot at 6. He needs to play at 7 and well Ireland desperately have to try adapt and pick guys on form
