Online comments after Leinster v Bath

A selection of the “keyboard warrior” reactions after the full-time whistle of our featured matches of the weekend.

If you’d like to contribute stay tuned to our Facebook page for our “Feel free to leave your thoughts…” posts which show up around full time after Leinster & Ireland matches.


Paul Smith Did what needed to be done and then took the foot of the gas. Some lovely tries scored but it was so one sided it was over as a contest after 25 minutes. Good that we were able to make changes and rest some players for a harder job next week and give others a taste of European rugby. A good start to the drive for five.



Sean Michaels Basically a game of two halves, first halve I felt we could’ve competed with any club team in Europe. Second halve was error strewn and in parts extremely sloppy. If we are going to obtain the fifth star this season then we are going to have to find a level of consistency and ruthlessness that we have not yet managed this season



Cormac Mannion  All over after 25mins. Performance was disappointing after that. What was worrying was how a lot of momentum in the second half seemed to disappear when McGrath replaced JGP. Slow ruck ball, telegraphed passes etc

However, Lowe and Keenan are in smashing form, as is Frawley

Kevin Kelehan (In reply to Facebook post where I apologized for it posting later than usual) The tries came as scheduled!


Many thanks to all who offered opinions.

Look out Monday for our match writeup JLP
