@JoeNaConnacht I’d fancy Connacht to beat Glasgow.

URC quarter-final handicaps are out. Glasgow -13 feels way too high against Connacht. They’re not in the greatest form. Bulls -12 v Munster feels about right. Stormers -15 v Cardiff. Could see it being 20pts+. Leinster -16 v Lions? I’d be shocked if they won by 17+.

@scrumming_ten Mannie Libbok is an accident waiting to happen. He lacks consistency within a game to be considered a quality 10.

Leinster need to sign an international quality #10 Break the Bank of Ireland for Finn Russell or Manie Libbok

@ballsdotie What would you amplify that clown?

Stephen Jones Sticks The Boot In On Leinster After Yet Another Final Defeat To be expected balls.ie/rugby/stephen-…

@patmccarry The only coach worse than Nienaber would be ROG. It would be like the disastrous Kidney period on steroids

'Nienaber was asked last month if he intended to see out the full term of his Leinster contract. He replied: “If they don’t fire me, yes. Yeah.”' Worth revisiting this piece from January In reality, likely to be too costly to end this combo a year early rugbypass.com/plus/there-is-…

@scrumming_ten Life long Leinster fan. Seriously no thanks.

Leinster should approach Scott Robertson to be their next coach

@allTxs He is class. Odd that the best 10 is leaving Leinster

Frawley has overtaken Crowley for the most disrespected player on the island. If he got the amount of time/chances his provincial competition has been shown then he could be challenging for the international jersey.

@LeinsterClub @jim_demps He is not saying that because Munster would never be there. 18 years is a very long time….

@jim_demps Are you saying Munster would have just rolled over & gone into the changing room at 07 : 28?

The 90 secs before half time probably epitomised Leinster today. Poor decisions backed up with needlessly wasting energy & poor accuracy Tap and go on your own 22 with time gone just double nailed the coffin Also Clarkson lucky not to see red for the clear out in the last ruck

@Thechrisntogo @RuaidhriOC I think it’s Scott Robertson but in any case we definitely don’t want him. Why would Farrell take a step back?

@RuaidhriOC Might be a long shot but I'd take Scott Robinson or Andy Farrell for the Leinster job

Rúaidhrí O’Connor: Leinster’s Jacques Nienaber experiment has failed and they look in need of a reboot from top to bottom independent.ie/sport/rugby/ru…

@RuaidhriOC There are many issues with that final. Bordeaux were the better team but also got all the luck. However Nienaber is not the right fit for this team and needs to move on. Cullen has had enough opportunities to get a tune out of them too and they need a new voice.

@mcmahon31j @mrbobdaly @rtenews It’s the same license fee budget. Neither Rte or TG4 support any local rugby or football. Zero club games in either sport. The Leinster schools SCT final had more fans in Tallaght than most of the empty underage GAA games shown by the national broadcasters.

@mcmahon31j @mrbobdaly @rtenews Pedantic. Does it matter? Point is the sport budget is only GAA. No support for local rugby or FAI. No URC, no AIL, no LOI but no shortage of rubbish GAA games that no one even bothers to go to.

Why aren't rte showing the Heineken cup rugger final.... @rtenews

@cash_dispenser @mrbobdaly @rtenews It’s easy to be out bid when you don’t bother your hole to bid.

@mrbobdaly @rtenews Because they were outbid on the rights by Premier Sports

@Caolan_Scully Got very ugly

@Caolan_Scully This could get ugly in the second half

Just too porous from Ulster when defending Rob Baloucoune did so well to deny Banks but Montpellier have it all their own way going forward TBPs conceded to Glasgow, Stormers, Munster, Leinster and Connacht of late; and 3 tries in the first half tonight

@RugbyPass @neilfissler Who are the Leinster NIQs next year?

EXCLUSIVE: Lowe, who is missing from Leinster's Champions Cup final side, is on the brink of leaving Irish rugby. @neilfissler 👨‍💻 with the latest #InvestecChampionsCup | #URC | #GallagherPREM | #TOP14 rugbypass.com/news/fissler-c…

@BettingRugby999 Rayasi over Keenan??

Déjà c’est absurde de faire un XV dans le rugby moderne vu l’importance des bancs mais en plus ne pas mettre Coleman avec les matchs qu’il sort en Europe depuis 2 ans… faute pro!

@CianTracey1 Spain would be a great country to stage a RWC

Been in some cool stadiums over the years, San Mamés is right up there 👌🏻

@Murray_Kinsella @DanSheridan2012 What time was that taken at? Seems to be a lot of shade. Hopefully lots of shade at KO time.

Class pic of the San Mamés Stadium in Bilbao today by @DanSheridan2012. It's a slick venue.

@dlLambo How can you pardon someone for future tax crimes? It literally means he can do anything!

A president who has used his office to blatantly enrich himself and his family is now immune from any actions to hold him to account. And the USA talks about "freedom and democracy".... It's a violent oligarchy. Simple as
