I know it's horrible weather but the 9's and 10's for both teams really aren't playing well tonight. This game is begging for a halfback to grab it.
Both teams are really struggling to get to grips with the wild weather so far. Think Eoghan Clarke has acquitted himself very well off the bench at hooker. Reckon the quality of Leinster's defensive ruck work has been the difference so far. #MUNvLEI
Horrible weather conditions to play in but the Jager-Porter battle at scrum has been excellent. As close to 50-50 as you'll get so far. #MUNvLEI
