Ulster were dominant there. Miss stockdale massively though when attacking

Paddy Jackson signing for london Irish. Good for him
Feckin hell, fine margins. Instead of seeing out the half relatively comfortably ahead, Leinster go in all square. Surprisingly poor game management from them.
All from that tackle on Sexton. Leinster looked out on their feet at the end there.
Would love Saracens to build a purpose-built rugby stadium in London, set permanent roots and build a true local fan-base as London's Premier team. My rugby knowledge isn't that extensive, how have fans of the London clubs like Saracens, Irish and Wasps coped with all the stadium changes? Is it difficult for them to build a good fan base?
Just back from Glasgow vs. Leinster. Gutted. Thought we were on the receiving end of some harsh refereeing decisions but will have to watch it back to check as hard to tell at the match.
Nice one Israel, kill Aussie rugby.
In other news, u20 World Cup is on at the moment. Ireland had a big win over England yesterday in a game that included a fairly bad red card.
When is our next match?
Good luck to the junior Wallabies in their semi final. I hope World Rugby re-asses their well intended high tackle crackdown after the tournament though.
Did you happen to see any of Ireland's game yesterday? An Irish jackaler's knee got blown out by an Italian launching himself into the ruck from the side. Not even a penalty given. This seriously needs to be looked at too, and fast, or there's going to be ACLs popping on a regular basis. Potential career enders too. Dan Leavy will be out for a full year with his.
By the way, Ronan O'Gara has been appointed head coach of La Rochelle : https://www.bbc.com/sport/rugby-union/48610056
