Yeah, him. The big dirty traitor. Watch him walk about collect his runners up medal with Heaslip and Sexton
THIS IS A JOKE BY THE WAY

Just not sure about this sitting down lark while the final is going on. Sure we're not used to that craic at all- won't be able to open our lungs up properly at all at all...........

Thought he was decent in the first game too, played way longer than usual and our scrum was massive that game, as for last weekend its very easy for a TH prob to be wrongfooted by one of the NH's fastest playersand stick a desperate hand out. Nothing malicious thought tge yellow was harsh!

Sitting down is good because you get to pace yourself. You know, sit down while Leinster are trying to get out of their own half and then stand up again when Muldoon scores the winning try after the clock hits 80.

Murray Kinsella at it again with more insightful analysis. Well worth a watch (unless you're deliberately trying to keep your hopes down for self preservation purposes, in which case you probably shouldn't watch it because it's going to make you believe)

Yes.
It's in the pre-match blurb that he will be in Murrayfield with some lion called Leo.

Eddie has raced Leo before. It did not end well for Leo.

Travelling more in hope than expectation but what an occasion to be apart of. Big thing for us is the start. We are playing a team who are used to big occasions, who've been there and won. If Leinster get the sort of start they got against Ulster we can forget it.
Man for man Leinster are stronger but as a unit if everyone gets their jobs right we will be in with a great chance. However for me this feels a bit like Galway playing Kilkenny in a hurling final or Mayo playing Kerry/Dublin in a football final. The biggest challenge that has to be faced for any West of Ireland team is the mental challenge of believing we will win. Huge work has been done in that regard but can't help escaping the feeling that we have had to be about 15 points better to win by a few in a lot of games.
If we are to win we'll have to get our basics right, kick offs / restarts being a particular necessity to tidy up. The main thing I hope is we do ourselves justice and we have no major regrets coming home. Leave it out there and if its good enough it'll be the party to end all parties. If not the lads can hold our hands up and say they did all we could and we'll be proud of them anyway.
