Very excited about seeing Dominic Ryan think he is a great talent and can see O'Malley getting a lot more gametime this season as the great one begins to slow down and get wrapped in more cotton wool.

Good team overall showing our strength in depth.

That pack is excellent for it being our 2nd string!!!! Front 5 should be interesting IMO and the back row are very efficent also.

The back 3 are all very exciting runners who love to attack with ball in hand. So good to see Carr in blue.

Anyone going to the game per chance?????

Dont mean to be a donkey hole but surely thi belongs in the Club section.

Otherwise I see no real point in having said sections.

On topic, that is a nice team inspite of missing your big guns. Hope Conway goes well, he had an excellent JRWC.

Calum Clark has had a couple runs out as captain before (only LV cup though I think). It seems Mallinder is doing the same with Clark as he did with Hartley, using the captaincy to calm them down a bit and get them to control their quick tempers.

Will definately be useful to see how Eustace goes at 8, we hardly used him last year and we need a decent back up to Wilson. Before we had been using Dowson but he needs a rest as some point as well. Manoa might also be the answer at 8 as he seems to have played quite well in the warm ups so far.

Hmmm. Be intrested to see how Mercey gets on. Done a brilliant job in the HC.
Also, how Cato gets on. On paper, Him, Ashton and Foden look very very potent.

Mercey is definately someone I'm expecting big things from. He's still only young so needs more work but hopefully he will build a great partnership with Alex Waller. They both got thrown in at the deep end a bit in the HC last year and your rightly so they did well considering they have the levels of Tiny and Mujati to live up to.

I'm sure the game against Leinster will be a cracker. Leinster have a fantastic squad and will be hard to beat, but we will be looking to build on the win against Toulouse last week and get some revenge for the HC boxing

Yes! Quite disappointing really. Only 2 live provincial/international rugby matches in Dublin this week. Very Happy

Apologies I have no idea why this isn't in the club section out of my control I am afraid.

Is this going to be on TV tonight? Or radio? or is there someone who can give us updates?

No, No and I don't have enough manual dexterity. Perhaps someone on forum.leinsterfans.com will do it. There is usually someone there. (They must bring a laptop to games or have very small fingers)

Incredibly balanced, I'm sure.

I'm getting antz in my pantz. There's almost too much in the way of warm up games at the moment. I'm a-hankering for a proper game with league points at stake and a side order of world cup build up.

Just looking at it, has to be one of Leinster's fastest ever back 3.

Yes no maybe?

I'd say so. Slightly on the short side.

But maybe deceptively short.

Fitz and Conway are both over 6ft no idea about Carr.
O'Malley is a small lad though.

Ah, but 6ft isn't as high as it used to be. If you catch my drift.

Carr looks tiny, but I think that might be stockiness.

MATCH REPORT:
Fitz, Conway, Sheridan and Sykes all taken off with injuries.

Scrum was poor til mid way through first half
Work a the breakdown was very bad
Cronin in lineout was sketch at times.

Carr, ruddock and madigan were good. Dominic Ryan was excellent.
Good running of lines but hands slow at transferring the ball out

Saw Bran Mujati (Saints prop) put this up on Twitter after the game last night;

Steven Sykes and Heinke van der Merwe were calling me a baboon during the scrums last night. Racism is still alive and things don't change

http://twitter.com/#!/bvmujati

Should there be an investigation into this?

I'm sending an e-mail to Leinster Rugby about it. Maybe if enough people get in contact with them they'll be forced to take action.

Anyone doing that should be thrown out of Leinster. No place for it in the game, no place for it in society.

Get these idiots out of my province, if its true and I don't see why he would lie, I don't want to see either of them in a leinster jersey again. I would not go watch games if them two are still playing for leinster

If that's the way you feel, make sure you e-mail Leinster about it.

I see Brian Mujati has deleted the comments in question from his twitter feed. I would like to see a serious investigation of this by Leinster and for it not to be swept under the carpet.

It's a disgrace either way. Either it's true and it is a disgrace on the part of Sykes and VDM, or it is not true and it is a disgrace on the part of Mujati.

doesn't smell right that excuse. Perhaps it is true. I have no information either way. Hopefully it will ensure that no such incidents happen again.

Rugby is a great sport where people can knock the shyte out of eachother but also have great discipline and know where the line is.
