Him or maybe Browne?

Anybody else think they were coming back into it until Cullen made a complete hames with his quadruple substitution?

Still a great win and Nick got the send off he deserved.

Very impressed with Reidy today. Likewise young McCall.

I knew Sky would give MOTM to Pienaar, although Jacko would have been my choice. Joe can't really have many excuses left now tbh.

I also think Darren Cave has a battle on his hands with Luke Marshall, isn't wonderful to see Lukey come back and prove all the doubters wrong after his 'annus horriblus' with concussions. Delighted for the kid.

Brilliant result, but one question - why can't we play every game like its Leinster?? We wouldn't be in a dogfight for a play off place if we'd played anything like that on at least another 2-3 occasions.

Still, going to enjoy this one

Very frustrating that we won 4/6 against the Top 3 and we're "doubled" by 5 and 6.

Has anyone mentioned how magnificent Luke Marshall was today, I don;t give a stuff about MOTM & I assume they gave it to Ruan based on my lamenting the enormous slight that has never seen him voted player of the season, but equally i thought that Paddy was absolute quality, Schmidt really is a clown of Mexico-centric proportions, Sexton was a gurning shadow of what he can be & really Quiff??????????????? Shame on you Schmidt.

But above all I believe that Luke Marshall was heroic today & if Teo beat McCloskey wonce or twice, nobody got past Luke and one or two felt his wrath - how did you like them apples VDFlier? Nearly broke him in two.

Oh but if Darren Cave had a greedy bone in his body we would have had not just the TBP but the try of the season.
NEVER MOVE ON. Years on, I cannot ever watch Ireland with anything but indifference, I continue to wish for the imminent death of Donal Spring, the FIRFUC's executioner of Wee Paddy & Wee Stu, and I hate the FIRFUCs with undiminished passion.

What a wonderful scoreline to wake up to :). Ulster have a habit of pulling things together for a big game so not surprised by the win but the margin is pretty awesome. Scoreline reflect the game? Problem for Ulster is trying to string a few of these results together - particularly away from home. Would be nice if connacht could win next week but I fear they have finally ran out of puff.

Bitter much? What goes around comes around Plug. Are Reddan and Nacewa alright after those life threatening knocks they took? Thought so.

Discussed thus...

Hahahahahahahahahaha.

What like Nacewa going down trying to get Scholes carded then seeming fine for rest of match but ref not buying it.

He's a funny guy.

Yeah he saw no wrong in Kearney head-butting Ruan though. He and Girvan have coached them like they played. Dirty and one dimensional.

Must say I enjoyed that.
Best all round performance of the season.
Parity in the scrums with both front rows.
Browne may be the ruck inspector but he might be our most effective maul disruptor. Reidy breakthrough player of the year. Rightly bulked up and a low centre of gravity. Candidate for MOTM.
Ruan more like himself.
Pads magnificent. Did he put a foot wrong? Big hits from him and Trimbo too.
Did I mention I enjoyed it.

Baaaaahahahahahahaha!

Leinster's cynical playing 'tactics' are slowly being exposed and Leo doesn't like it.

Poor Leo's been taking lessons from Axel Foley on how to manage post match interviews. Always someone else's fault eh?

Something almost karma-ish about that, bummer Leo!
