Manage episode 460943960 series 2999299
Not even the La Rogelle fans waving half Munster / half La Rochelle flags could stop Leinster on Sunday afternoon, as a world class defensive effort led by Caelan Doris and Josh van der Flier soaked up the pressure to secure a third win in a row over their old rivals. That's the battle won, but ROG wasn't long reminding us all that the war happens in May.
It was an enthralling European Cup encounter in keeping with the previous evening's fare in Thomond Park; do we have our Champions Cup back? We chat to Chris Jones of the BBC and Shane Horgan about the entertainment factor, the Thomond factor, Munster playing with guts and their gut, if Leinster can and should remain in battle mode, and the simple, vital brilliance of the John Hodnett and Joe McCarthy tries.
We get all the permutations for Munster and Leinster's games against Northampton and Bath, and a few unnecessary extras, Murph fills us in on Connacht’s Mayo move, while Eoin reveals a themed party featuring James Lowe cocktail sticks.
