    Not sure whyybou’ve switched your wingers around, so there is a thing, but the selection is pretty solid for 2024. As an AB fan, I’d want to see more Kiwis but, overall, it hasn’t been the best year for NZ rugby where they have just about held their No.3 World ranking without winning much of note. Next year might be different though.

    Clermont are a decent side, third in the Top 14 and on a winning streak, they came fully loaded too so it never going to be a walkover. Leinster lineout is in a bit of a state at the moment, but I think they will sort it out. Our defense is immense though. Only conceding 3 tries against high scoring French and English teams and keeping Clermont pointless from the 4th minute on. I think our attack is starting to click into gear this year as well but is still developing. Prendergast is the key to Leinster and Ireland evolving their attack and I don't want to put the hex on him, but I honestly think he could develop into our greatest ever fly half and yes that includes Sexton. The Munster fans get upset when you say that 😉

    Love your analysis mate. Just subscribed! I was at the game last night, and although we had a few guinness alright, I can tell you, Jordie Barrett has added something special already. His communication with Prendergast and Jimmy OBrien in the back field during stoppages in play, that try saving steal, and his 2nd try in 2 games, but just his relentless aggression, I can say without doubt, he will be the difference this season. We will play him anywhere. He's that good! We still have furlong, lowe , keenan and sheahan among others to return, so yeah, lets not take the fact that Toulouse just put 60+ points on Exeter too lightly or heavily just yet in december. There's a long way to go and Leinster are heating up nicely. I feel this is our year. Love from Dublin. Oh yeh, P.S. The small matter of RG Snyman, what an absolute beast and a freak of nature. We've also got your nienaber in the crows nest..... Give us a few weeks, we'll impress you with the champagne rugby then my friend. Cheers . Robert

    Kinda picked this one as a tight game pre match. Clermont is a very good team but as you mentioned the bench got exposed. I enjoyed the game, but i quite like a scrum/lineout battle. Thought Leinster got exposed and imo Clermont was a key part of their lineout falling apart. But class players, and the scrum did well. I'm not a fan of Porter but he had a great game, should've won a few more penalties at the scrum. Prendergast was on 🔥 tho. Fyi, Jordy Barrett was playing midfield for the Canterbury NPC team. Picked the canes as a SR team rather than cruz i believe, to play fullback. Izzy Dagg, George Bridge, David Havili were outside backs at cruz. I think cruz were lining him up as an understudy to Ryan Crotty and he wanted to play FB. Started a number of tests at FB but didn't exactly shine there. I want him at 12 but maybe the issue is that he doesn't want that 🤔

      @KickOnRugby I don't think he ever actually played for Cruz, just Canterbury NPC. He studied at our agricultural university (same uni that McCaw went to) and picked canes very early on. Must say, his positioning was excellent on the weekend. I was never sold on him as a FB but as the years go by, I'm less and less confident about NZ coaching and if players like him have been impacted negatively

    The first 30 minutes looked like being a classic, then it degenerated. Leinster rectified ther disicpline issues from last week, and in fact competed really well in the scrums, out-doing a big Clermont pack...but the lineout absolutely fell apart. To manage to win that without a functioning lineout was testament to their defence, but they'll go nowhere if they don't fix that swiftly, it's a huge part of their attacking set piece and hamstrung their attack all night. Porter (that chase back!), Barrett, Dorris all had good games, but the standout was Prendergast. He just has that feel to him...that feel of the extra second or two on the ball, that the ones capabe of being top class always seem to have. His range and timing of pass, drawing players to him, then sending a variety of short or long passes is just so impressive for a lad his age, and he's incredibly aware of what's on. He has a lot to learn still, but he is so promising.

      Remember Sonny Bill Williams tweeting about him a couple of years ago saying in a few years everyone will know his name because he will be a household name. Heres hoping

      Fast becoming one of my fav players Prenderagast is. The time he has on the ball is wild. Like everyone around him is in slow mo when he has the ball

    The player buy in to Schmidts plans 🎯 8/10 from me, but hear me out. A couple of very poor games, but they had some big matches and put in great performances. Pushed NZ, Ireland and Scotland hard and of course the win at Twickenham. They've got a very good back row and outside backs, the front row is competitive, but the halves and bench is a struggle, yet they just went for it. Imo, they're a very well coached team full of players playing above themselves who ended the season as twice the team they were

      Great summary of their year. Hope Schmidt stays on with them until 2027 RWC💪

    I've watched this 10 times and genuinely think this would be a contender for play of the decade if it was a pro competition

    Kickers dream, couldn’t end a game any worse than that. Absolutely horrendous
