Cronje looking so dangerous every time he touches the ball.
Harry, please start getting these kicks off the field.

I do worry about what happens as our energy fades in this heat. Very callow bench. Can see us falling away again in the last 20 but so far this has been impressive from a very young team.
Immense 50/22 from Tector to set us up for the try before half time. Lawlor has had a couple of tough moments in defence but looked incredibly dangerous going forward. Front row on the back foot in the scrum but been very potent around the park. Line-out holding its own.

Gunne having one of his best games for Leinster, and combining very well with Gabriel, whose kicking has been a bit ropey but has been very threatening with ball-in-hand. Ericson has struggled under the high ball but some of his carrying has been immense.
Inexperience showing at times for sure but a lot to like about that first half. Huge to get the score before half-time to go in ahead, particularly after we'd left a few gilt-edged chances begging. Scrum and defence a worry but attack has looked very sharp, at least up until the red-zone.

Fintain Gunne really really cooking up today. This is a great development for all concerned #LIOvLEI
This could be a high-scoring match. Both teams' defences looking very porous.
