Zebre a shambles. This can't be the answer for Italian rugby? Pity about Seany, as Tracy's darts not up to scratch at all.

Ringrose must be MOTM, try scorer himself & contributed to most of O'Loughlins scores too. Great performance tonight. #LEIvZEB— Killian Byrne (@killianbyrne) January 6, 2017
Henshaw and Ringrose have really clicked in centre together💙💪🏻O Loughlin has really upped his game and has his hand up for selection against Montpellier💙💙 #fromthegroudup

Perfect 10. #LEIvZEB pic.twitter.com/vEJxMhMrKe— Hugh Curran (@hughcurran) January 6, 2017
The Ringrose-Henshaw axis starting to really gel. Pretty impressive. O'Loughlin has definitely put his hand up for selection next week.

Quite frankly it was a bit one sided. Zebra had no answer to Leinsters attacking rugby.

10/10 👍 @leinsterrugby #LEIvZEB— Ross McDonnell (@rossmcdl) January 6, 2017
Ive been trying not to get carried away all season and I know it was against a joke of a team but there seems to be a real hunger within the squad and a genuine desire to impress which is only good for the supporters.
Players that impressed me tonight were Ringrose (he always does) and O'Loughlin.

Record score for the boys in blue in the Pro12! ! Can only beat who is front of you and we did it superbly well tonight. MOM could have gone to any of about a dozen played a tonight, all in them blue. Great win.

Try-fest at the RDS! @leinsterrugby have thumped Zebre, 70-6! Some well-worked scores on display tonight! #LEIvZEB pic.twitter.com/iwaSluo2EM— Elverys Intersport (@Elverys) January 6, 2017
Poor Zebre were just that. Will this be the last time we see them at the RDS?

Thats likely the last time Zebre will play Leinster.— John Murphy (@JohnMurphyIRL) January 6, 2017
We needed a big win today. We've dropped points already this season a few times meaning things may get tight at the top in May. Having more tries scored and a better PD may be crucial for the top 2 finish. Ospreys in particular are a team who take full advantage of these fixtures. We've done well in the past but not as well as they have. We were close tonight though and have put ourselves in a pretty decent position now hopefully. It's important to be able to stick the boot in when the opportunity presents itself.

Not sure what Leinster were trying to prove against Zebre.— Ivan Santry (@ivansantry) January 6, 2017
A very good training game, playing out certain plays for the coming weeks I'm sure.
A lot of people are very disrespectful to Zebre, Shambles, Shite, Waste, Need to go, Joke !! Folks they might be behind the curve on talent and skill but let's not put them down. They are part of our league until they are not.
Most of the Italian squad plays in France or Eng

One way traffic as expected but you can only play what's in front of you Ruthlessness in the 2nd Time to rest JS @HarpinOnRugby @BigJoeShep— Richard Mifsud (@Richmif) January 6, 2017
Ringrose is ridiculous. Brilliant defensively and unplayable going forward.
Shane O Leary
Ten terrific tries!!!! Hope @SeanCronin2 is ok. Sadly the Zebras look like they're close to exctinction. #COYBIB #LEIvZEB— Harpin' On Rugby (@HarpinOnRugby) January 6, 2017
