October 27, 2017October 28, 2017 / Rugby Spotlight / 2 Comments

Aaaaaaaand we're back!! After two weeks of top flight rugby in the Champions Cup, we're back in the Pro14 where Leinster face a potential table topping clash with provincial rivals Ulster. The big hopes for this game is that we continue on the vein of producing top drawer performances like we saw over the past … Continue reading Ulster v Leinster – Preview

Glasgow v Leinster: Post match review

October 21, 2017October 21, 2017 / Rugby Spotlight / Leave a comment

Glasgow 18 - Leinster 34 Well that was yet another fantastic performance from the boys in blue, or should I say the boys in checkered white and blue! It’s another bonus point win which makes it 10 out of 10 after 2 rounds. It literally doesn’t get better than this for Leinster so far! The … Continue reading Glasgow v Leinster: Post match review

Glasgow v Leinster: Preview

October 20, 2017 / Rugby Spotlight / 2 Comments

Round two of the Champions Cup sees Leinster take on Glasgow away at Scotstoun stadium. There is certainly no easy team in Pool 3 and Leinster face another tough challenge after defeating Montpellier at the RDS last weekend. There are five changes in total to the team that Leo Cullen sent out to the RDS … Continue reading Glasgow v Leinster: Preview

Leinster v Montpellier: post match review

October 14, 2017October 15, 2017 / Rugby Spotlight / 2 Comments

Leinster 24, Montpellier 17 What a fantastic start to the season! The match had everything; free flowing rugby, tough forward battles, gut wrenching tackles, plenty of tries (6 in all), and a nail biting finish. It was a great advertisement for the Champions Cup and of course a great result for the boys in blue. The … Continue reading Leinster v Montpellier: post match review

Leinster v Edinburgh: Post match review

September 30, 2017September 30, 2017 / Rugby Spotlight / 1 Comment

Leinster 21 - Edinburgh 13 Well that was interesting! And not interesting in that it was a great match to watch. Interesting in terms of seeing how far off Leinster are from competing at the highest level. Harsh? I don't think so. Leinster failed to play as a cohesive unit and put meaningful phases together. … Continue reading Leinster v Edinburgh: Post match review

Leinster v Edinburgh – Preview

The boys are back in town! And by that I mean the big guns, the Lions, the internationals, the leaders, whatever you want to call them. They're back! Well, most of them anyway. Don't get me wrong, the young lads that have played the last four games in this season's Pro14 have performed admirably and … Continue reading Leinster v Edinburgh – Preview

Cheetahs v Leinster – Post match review

September 22, 2017September 28, 2017 / Rugby Spotlight / 1 Comment

Cheetahs 38 - Leinster 19 Well that was not what any of us were expecting! The Cheetahs come away with 5 points and Leinster leave with nothing. Credit to the Cheetahs, they performed with huge intensity and took the game to Leinster. The offloading techniques and slick ball handling rattled Leinster from 1-80 minutes and … Continue reading Cheetahs v Leinster – Post match review

Cheetahs v Leinster – Preview

September 21, 2017 / Rugby Spotlight / 1 Comment

Following the visa issues last week, Leinster have had another minor interruption to their preparation to face the second of the South African teams tomorrow. Cian Healy was kicked off a flight due to using his laptop before takeoff!! He however caught the next flight and rejoined his team mates for training. I'm sure Cullen … Continue reading Cheetahs v Leinster – Preview

Southern Kings v Leinster post match review

September 16, 2017 / Rugby Spotlight / Leave a comment

Well that was certainly a game of two halves!! Leinster defended heroically throughout the first half after only getting approx. 35% possession for the first 40 minutes. The Kings deploy a fantastic and very entertaining style of rugby where they try to keep ball in hand and keep the ball moving fast from wing to … Continue reading Southern Kings v Leinster post match review
