Start your day with five eye-catching egg-chasing quotes & links from around the ruggersphere.
 
Later today on HarpinOnRugby…
our Leinster v Treviso writeup is titled
“First and Foremost”
 
 

The 20-year-old is destined for big things and yesterday’s man-of- the-match performance in front of Joe Schmidt served as the latest reminder of his class.
 
 
Cian Tracey - Irish Independent

A sterling performance from outhalf Niall Earls powered Wicklow to the win over a fancied Enniscorthy side who only narrowly missed out on promotion to the All-Ireland league last weekend.
 
 
Irish Times

Being the lowest placed Irish province means the only way is up, right?
 
 
Gayl - West Terrace View

Robert Kitson - The Guardian

A silly loss to Italian side Treviso cost them the crown of being the regular season winners which they would have deserved.
