New Zealand's World Cup-winning coach receives knighthood

They were universally hailed as chokers last year in the CC final despite being a drop goal away from beating Toulouse. A Toulouse team that went on to drop 60 PTS on UBB in that years top 14 final.

I can't understand Irish fans who seem to think we'd be better off without a dominant Leinster?

A powerful, versatile squad with depth and options in every position.

With the likes of PSDT, Malherbe, Augustus, and Hanekom to join later, the depth is scary!

Magnanimous from White. Irish fans do need to appreciate what Leinster have achieved by assembling that squad. And they are good guys. Narrow defeats in finals stung. The utterly disingenious accusations of ‘Arrogance’ when they fall just short often peddled by lazy journalists looking for clickbait must have hurt too.

That first half performance was magnificent. The pressure that Bulls applied at the end of the first half, would have broken through any other team in the URC…beyond probably. I was in the terrace above and you could hear the thunderous collisions echoing above the din.

Two best teams in this years tournament and it showed.

Hard luck to Bulls but their day is coming.

Lovely to see the beautiful roars from the crowd for the great Jordie Barrett and that great journeyman no 10 for Leinster, Ross Byrne who saw the last quarter through with characteristic composure and professionalism.

Great tournament and I don’t think anyone could deny Leinster deserved that one, over the year as well as yesterday.
