The Munster thought process is the same as the Irish thought process and are both playing a brand of rugby that is stale and reminds me of a Clive Woodward team in decline.

Leinster played a style of rugby alien to Kidney and Munster thinking yet with nearly the same set of backs.

Look what Michael Bradley has done with limited resources at Connaught and now Edinburgh, what Conor O'Shea is doin with Harlequinns. Axel Foley is the wrong move for Munster and they can write off the next 3 years under him


Foley is only the forwards coach with Munster....so I think he is pretty adequately qualified for that!

Good Lieutenants don't make good Generals, Foley has 1 season as forwards coach and now people think he should be head coach? Maybe in 5 years time but not after one bad season.

Huge game this weekend, could be the game of the year if both teams perform to their best. Leinster go in with a full deck to pick from. Clermont the last side to beat Leinster in Heineken cup are the other strongest team left in the competition.
After Watching Leinster beat Ulster (they actually beat the three provinces home and away) I am more sure that the winner of this game will win the Heineken Cup. If it was in the Aviva I would say Leinter would win, bit it's not and having to go to France will test Leinster to their limits. I hope it's dry in Bordeaux as that will suit Leinster better.

In Joe Schmidt I think is the best coach in Northern hemisphere Rugby who has intimate knowledge of Clermont. Clermont do have Nathan Hines who will know how the Leinster set piece works.

All in all a great game to look forward to, it could go either way but I'll go with the heart and say Leinster.

Unfortunately they way things work out, I'll be in Croke Park so the sky box will be set and the radio turned off on the way home. Here's hoping for a Lily / Leinster double this weekend.
