Leinster-8 LettinOn Irish-24

EDINBURGH HANGOVER?

God love me, I actually went and published Episode 1 of my vidcast tonight!!!

The one thing that it does to this blog is that it sets me up to repeat myself as I do a post on Leinster’s matches having already given my views on the vidcast.

So now you know what I thought of Leinster’s performance and why I call the visitors the LettinOn Irish, what more can I say?

Well, despite the result it was an enjoyable evening, and fair play to the visitors for sending such a strong squad…I seem to remember this time last year the corresponding match was against the Queensland Reds’ 4th string Junior Academy 3rd XV…and as always it brought back memories (most of them pleasant) of my days as a Blackrock College schoolboy cheering the Rock Senior Cup Team to one of their twenty million Leinster Senior Schools Cup truimphs.

Next week, it’s for real and we play the Scarlets who of course hail from Llanelli, a word that’s much more enjoyable to write than to say, but more of that in Episode 2 of the vidcast…
