    Nienaber said it would take 14 weeks for leinster to fully implement his defense. 14 weeks later and he was spot on. It was also noticeable that leinster were much more selective when going into their attacking shape compared to h cup final when they were guilty of playing too much in their own half. Massive respect from a munster fan

The tries, the intensity, sheer intensity, the crowd, the atmosphere the mistakes (by all to be fair), the stadium itself. It was also the relief that slowly spread during the game as it became more and more evident that Leinster were going to do it, after the last three years being knocked out by La Rochelle.

    But Leinster delivered big time and we shut their attack down again and again and they had no answer.

      Bert D4 arrogance methinks, anyway Leinster have as much passion for Rugby as a religious fundamentalist has for sex.

    Best performance I've seen from Leinster. Total domination in the second half. I was afraid they might have left too many ;points behind in the first half but they were not to be stopped and just took over in the second.

    Was wondering if anyone else saw the aldritt tackle before the JGP try, does nobody else think it’s a card at least, high shot, head on head, no change of height or direction, and high force, surely a red no?

    Fair play to Leinster, going into the game I was worried that it’d be a beating, Leinster the inform team with their star players performing really well (lowe,Gibson park etc) , great energy from the crowd too, after winning 2 finals I’d hope we could pull another escape but not to be.. the quality was too much. Disappointed that La Rochelle didn’t score in the second half, and hope Kerr Balow has a speedy recovery. Nice to see some travelling fans too! We’ll be back, and Rog can get booed while winning I hope 😂 ICI ICI C’EST LA ROCHELLE💛🖤

    Leinster fan - I am still on a high after Leinster's win. Cannot wait for Croke Park!! 15 years since that transformative game against Munster (82k spectators) - I believe that game representated a new era for Leinster. Now today (mon15th April), I have just learned that Jordie Barrett is joing Leinster next December!!!!

    Unbelievable relief , had set of to get a pint when laxRochelle scored end of first half. And thought oh no
    Not again but then when second half started I think for the first time we see the benefit of JN input finally taking hold , brillant to watch , in fairness la Rochelle fans gracious after game . Just feel like a curse lifted .. Next stop Croake park which is a big deal 81000 stadium , we not normally welcome playing a non Gaelic sport . Last time I was there 2009 semi heniken cup Leinster v Munster which Leinster one and also the trophy will defo be there

  • @garytaylor6408
    @garytaylor6408 6 місяців тому +1

    Absolutely agree re the advantage being played after the knock on and then kicked away. First ref I've seen not call advantage over regardless of outcome. Dickson seems to have one or two of these per game .

      No he was right advantage only comes if the ball stays in the field of play because it went out there was no advantage so went back for a scrum rightfully so.

    • @jmurphy9657

      ​@@ciaranbrknot always the case. As stated above, most refs will usually call it over if the player gets the kick away and into space.

    The All Black wins aside, this was my best day watching rugby since 2009 semi. It was an amazing atmosphere in the ground and just like at Croker this was special to be at it. I was at 4 finals as well, and there has been grand slams and other big days, but it is these era defining, narrative settling games that live on in the memory.

    At half time LR were still in it but this Leinster side found a new gear every time they needed it. Very happy for Rose Byrne. He's under a lot of pressure and Irish fans are quick to call for his head anytime anything goes wrong.

  • @ciaranbrk
    @ciaranbrk 6 місяців тому +1

    As a Leinster fan I’m delighted but take nothing for granted the next match will likely be Northampton in Croke park and if we do the business there Quinn’s or most likely Toulouse in the final. Advantage wasn’t over because the ball went dead if it stayed in the firewood of play it would have been advange over at least that’s my view of it because no advantage accrued back for the scrum.

    Super result for Leinster, probably not the contest that what was expected, some injuries really hurt LR and some strange calls from Dickson, what must go through Luke Pearse’s mind looking at this performance 🤔, I was at this game his signals / decisions for some of this game really below level expected.

    leinster fan here. i was also bemused by that knock on advantage desicion. lowe was under zero pressure when kicking the ball so most refs would call that advantage over straight away. yet early in the 2nd half hastoy kicks with knock on advantage while james lowe is in his face and advantage is called over straight away.
