Agreed

He has devalued the Ireland shirt with his continued selections

Joe has to make changes now or lose confidence of the people and the dressing room

That's why he keeps it 90% blue. He hasn't heard of the half of Connacht's team.

It's too late. He's taking a load of dross to SA.

Unfortunately Pro 12 is not International Standard nor was that Final international style rugby

Connaught got the run of the green early as Leinster made to many mistakes giving away possession .

Having to chase the game got to Leinster in exactly the same way as it did with Ulster the week before with their back 3 being exposed as the weakest part of their game was made visible .

Daverage lacks pace his brother has also lost pace and his strength which was kicking the length of the field is no asset without out a wind . Fitzgerald I have always considered a show pony all effort and no product .

That does not make the Connaught back 3 Internationals

It just means R Kearney is possibly past it Dave never really had it and Fitzgerald fails to deliver .

Too fcuking right. This should be nailed to the wall is every changing room.

Why do the westies have more balls than we have? Fair play to them, warriors all.

From a quick read of Leinsterfans, I see they now know what it feels like to be on the losing side. We know all too well.

It'll stand to them. Next up is Joe.

Just a great, great game. Of course the Westies got the rub of the green once or twice, especially Nigel's duff call on Sexton's forward pass that wasn't, but weren't they entertaining? Rugby like that gives us all hope.

Who knows, they are unlikely to get the chance under Schmidt to prove it one way or another.
One thing is certain - on form this year, not just on the back of yesterday's game, the Connacht back three are all well ahead of their Leinster counterparts Kearney/Kearney/Fitz, three plodders, all of whom are going to S.A., in terms of speed, skill and try scoring ability.
Ireland can only compete if they field their best players. These three totally deserve a chance, whether you think they are up to it or not.

Nigel's mistakes even themselves out.

He managed to miss Rab's knock on from his own pass early doors.

A fitting finale to the season though >appl
