Dominated the game and left scores behind. Probably should have got a bonus point.

Given how well @connachtrugby have been playing up to this game you would imagine @leinsterrugby would be happy with 20-3 in Galway. Based on how they played and the amount of handling errors and penalties they can hardly be happy with the performance #GuinnessPRO14 #CONvLEI

If Leinster are famed for champagne rugby in attack, I think we should acknowledge their stout defense too? #bluevelvet

This was just so grim. Don't know why they didn't take JvdF off for a HIA look after this

Dirty play by Connacht well deserved red card.

Lengthy ban for McCoy coming up. Hard fought win, but we always looked like winning it, thought Lacey had his usual erratic game

Sean Michaels

---

That win was built on their defense, and the Leinster defense so far this season has been outstanding #CONvLEI #COYBIB

Good result for Leinster, Connacht just couldn't keep up the manic assault. Pity about the horrible stamping red card - we don't need that in Irish Rugby

Leinster.

Business-like and frightening. #CONvLEI

— The Loose Head (@TheLooseH) September 29, 2018

Very sloppy 1sf half with far too many missed passes, mistakes & lack of sync. That said our D was VERY good and I didn't believe Connacht were ever going to exploit their opportunities and it was just time till we got a few scores. I thought JVDF was excellent, great to see SOB back and Robin Copeland was excellent for Westies.

Joe Sheppard

Funny seeing all these Connacht fans act like Munster fans and blaming the ref for getting hammered. They got 3 points after 2 mins and nothing after that. Played shite and got well beat. #CONvLEI

Revenge is sweet 😀. Only Irish team to beat us in 7 fixtures last year so nice to down to the Sportsgrounds with a full team and do the business!

Paul Smith

---

Leinster's defence was outstanding. JVDF is the quintessential openside flanker. The defence and experience won it for them. Our own discipline needs a serious improvement #CONvLEI

— The Culk (@The_Culk) September 29, 2018

---

Handling errors were stressful! Best Tomane game in blue so far! Physical game suits him. Connacht wanted to impose their will just couldn't keep up with their opposite numbers. Disgraceful red card. Huge ban expected. Josh VDF robbed of man of the match last week no mistake this week he's been outstanding

Baz C. Ryan

---

Great defense by both sides. Positive result in the end considering how tough it is to go to the Sportsground. Maintain the momentum but a lot to work on. Lots of points left out on the field. #CONvLEI #PRO14 #rugbyunited #topofthetable

— Dave (@chapperslite) September 29, 2018

Really enjoyed that. I saw 2 teams operating at optimum. The ref was very good throughout and if Connacht can play like that consistently, then they’re a semi final team. Once you reach the semi finals then you can win it! They are playing again which is great to see.

Leinster are just different level at the moment.

Leinster very scrappy in the first half but cleaned up in the second.. they must have had an awakening in the changing room

Good defensive play at times sees a nice win for us against a strong @RugbyConnacht_

Pity about the red....#CONvLEI

Great defence, JVDF immense again. Building steadily ahead of a number of big games.

— Aisling M (@thenoisy_oyster) September 29, 2018

---

We left more than two tries out there and our support was lacking on a few occasions. That said, keeping this Connacht team scoreless for 78 minutes is a good defensive shift. Perfect in our set pieces I believe, created chances and controlled the match once we got more than a score ahead. Things coming together nicely.

Dónal Foley

---

Even if Leinster aren’t firing in attack their defence will win them games. Was an awesome performance. Their reading of the game is most impressive and even when Connacht broke the line the tackles just kept on coming.

— Ian Frizzell (@rava_ian) September 29, 2018

---

Determined defending by Leinster was impressive by their sheer bloodymindedness.

Andrew Potts

---

Good win. Josh was to the fore again. What a comeback from injury he’s had.

— Kev (@kmjob73) September 29, 2018

---

A good performance all round. Ground down a very motivated Connaught. Think leinster made them look worse than they are.

A few 5 percenters didn't come off for leinster today but that will come hopefully.

Have to say though I haven't been impressed with tomane as yet. He was slow to pass a couple of times today which killed moves and a few times got ahead of the play or wasn't in the right place. Hopefully he can settle into the systems though. He ran hard and was effective a few times but he won't trouble Henshaw at the moment.

Daniel Cowell

---

What a nasty cheap shot by Robertson McCoy - at a time when rugby is trying to eradicate head injuries he dances on VanderFlier's head - a real tough guy - long ban please #CONvLEI

— Barry Delaney (@thebaz_dublin) September 29, 2018

---

Interesting to see what our backrow will be for Europe. Josh is demanding selection since his return and with Seany back it’s a terrible time to pick up a knock for Rhys.

Derek Tormey

---

Very happy with the 4 match pts after that, more impressed with the 3 in the scoreline than the 20 - no way were Connacht crossing, Aki in particular kept quiet. Debatable non-calls on a couple of tip-tackles but no debate necessary for the red. #CONvLEI #COYBIB

Harpin On Rugby

Preview : Connacht v Leinster

Wowza!

You'd think after harpin' on the same team for over ten years I'd get used to what kind of team they were going to select, even in the topsy turvy world of Irish provincial team selection.

After fielding two very strong lineups at home, with Munster at the Aviva plus Wasps and Toulouse to come, all of the signs from history pointed to a host of stars being rested while a host of prospects get tested on a tricky visit to the Sportsground.

But as it turns out, the team is so strong we can afford to play Dave Kearney in the A side at Donnybrook tonight!

First there's Johnny Sexton.  Starting three weeks in a row in September???  What the what now?  That surely has to suggest a change in the player management rules?  Whatever the reason, I'm certainly not complaining and his presence on the team sheet makes a major difference to my outlook on this fixture, with all due respect of course to the other 10s at Leinster's disposal.

Outside him will be Joe Tomane, and I have to assume he has been itching to start after three weeks in a row wearing 23.  His debut in Cardiff was far from ideal, particularly on the defensive front, though to be fair other teams have gone there since and also struggled so he is definitely worth another chance.

Next is a back three of Lowe, Larmour and Kearney, which could be close to having the perfect balance of skills you need for those three jerseys.  Two wingers always looking to make something happen while behind them, a full back who is solid under the high ball and more than able to run back and get his side on the front foot himself.

If we can get even close to the type of rugby that produced tries like Lowe's against Edinburgh last Saturday, we're going to be hard to stop.

When it comes to the pack, we're incredibly close to our ideal starting 8, so expectations will be high there as well.  But while the home side have their own back rower named Sean O'Brien taking part, all eyes will be on our version who returns from another long term injury to take a place on the bench.  Fingers crossed he gets through a decent 15-20m shift and is ready for a full 80 soon.

As you can see by my positivity so far, I'm very much hoping that the match will go a tad differently to our last meeting with the Westerners just five months ago.  Yet while our matchday squad is a whole lot stronger than it was that day, Connacht's is more or less the same and certainly won't be too diminished by the lack of John Muldoon seeing as Robin Copeland is now based out that way.

They had a good win over the Scarlets last weekend and won't fear us no matter what side we put out.  I was particularly impressed by Bundee Aki's attitude in that match and totally expect more of the same from him here.

Basically I'm thinking we can win this one but to do so we'll need to take every chance we create...the longer we go without any kind of lead the harder it will be to get one, especially if we find ourselves on the wrong side of ref John Lacey...a repeat of the kind of discipline which led to just three penalties shipped at the RDS last time out could prove key.

So I'm expecting a couple of cracking interpros Saturday evening, with Leinster coming out on top by about 3-5 points, a shade closer than the bookies who have us by 6.  Now way is a win guaranteed but one thing is for sure...it will be an excellent test for us as the beginning of our "Drive For Five" draws nearer.  JLP

PS - Don't forget the Leinster A match tonight down at Energia Park/Donnybrook Stadium...make it down if you can but if not, I'm planning to do a liveblog he on the site starting around 7:15pm.
