What a final and what a comeback by La Rochelle who were worthy winners in the end. That try on half time have them the belief that they could win. That's two years without silverware for Leinster. To lose a final at home when they were 17-0 up is one hell of a choke and one that might leave some mental scarring.

Just how bad was Libbok honestly. Missed a kick at the start of the half, it was his mistake that lead to the Munster try and then two penalties at the end where he couldn’t get them close at all

Yeah, those two chances at kicking to the corner were especially terrible. Crunch time and not delivering.

Saracens win a sixth title. They're like the Man City of rugby aren't they? Must have an asterisk next to their titles.

They are exactly like the City of rugby except they got a proper punishment for breaking the rules whereas City haven't, yet. The Premier League and UEFA are scared shitless of the wealth City have and the determination to prove themselves innocent when in fact, they have been found guilty twice. Spending millions on trick lawyers won't help them in the end. THey should should accept a punishment and move on, like Saracens did. It will all go tits up at City one day.

I've got some very surprising news for you: The Crusaders are in the super rugby final.

Intensely physical and skilful game. I’d love to see these teams up against the Leinsters and La Rochelle’s of this world

I was so hoping the Chiefs would win but poor discipline and not managing the last 10 minutes well cost them dearly. The only title the Crusaders missed out on under Scott Robertson was the 2021 Super Rugby Trans-Tasman comp. We'll see how Razor goes with the All Blacks next year and beyond. Rob Penney has the unenviable task of replacing Scott Robertson next year.

Yeah I was rooting for the chiefs and that Dmac disallowed try was such absolute beauty. Fine margins….then Cane inexplicably going for that ball and getting himself binned. It was just so Sam Cane of him

Not even Richie McCaw would have got away with that!

I would have thought the hosts would play the opening match of the tournament.
