90% of the time that's a yellow for Kellecher.

Dupont again with the big moment. Absurd.

Might be a bum thought but perhaps Leinster's strategy of resting their big players before the Euro final then on the day expecting it all to click needs a rethink?

Pretty dumb by Arnold. Not sure it's more than yellow but irrelevant with only 10 mins left.

I've seen much worse given yellows and not be cited. We're still in a total mess over these offences. Plus plenty of the same go ignored game after game.

See my comment above. It might have been many things but red was a long reach.

Yep. I think it's harsh. He wasn't exactly flying in. Influenced by the pantomime booing maybe. 😂

According to one of the commentators (again on RTE), and to probably misquote, it was the most blatant red card you'll see. It was reckless.

Not developing one strong flyhalf, and playing more negative since Lancaster left, would be having the bigger impact today.

Tight, but looked like it was grounded.

No way that can be given after Carley says "no try". Albeit, I think he made the wrong call.

The ref and the tmo not communicating properly, Carly says he saw the ball over the line and the tmo doesn't mention there was a movement after he saw it on the ground.

It was obviously initial short, which ruins Carley's credibility.

The contradicted himself by saying the ball was clearly over the line.

He was never properly on his feet, just grabbed the ball as he was falling over.

17 turnovers by Toulouse and commentator right saying,"they haven't had to work particularly hard for them."

Well, maybe next year.

Not with Ross at 10 please, and back to playing the way we did in the last 2 years. Nienaber is no Lancaster.

Dupont won that today, some player.

Leinster the dominant team for much of that match but oddly created virtually no chances. Dupont the difference.

Enjoyable, both the game and the result.

Dupont up there with Carter as the best I've seen in the modern game. JGP did everything he could and had many outstanding moments, and clearly deeply second best. Dupont is just that good.

Appreciate that, but despite being a drop goal away, it didn't feel like it was going to happen today. Play has been relatively poor in recent weeks.

Hugely dissapointing for the URC. Did the wrong team get to the final
