The Leinster Listen

Back to Province business. After the Six Nations dust settles, Leinster return to the Aviva on Friday night with something to prove after a chastening defeat up in Glasgow. The Scarlets arrive in 14th place and fighting for their season, but wounded Leinster sides can be dangerous, and with Porter back and the top two still very much in their sights, there's plenty riding on this one. 🔮 URC Game...

Glasgow meant business. On home turf at Scotstoun, the URC league leaders put in a performance that justified every bit of their standing at the top of the table, and Leinster simply had no answer on the day. A chastening result, but an important reality check as the business end of the season approaches. 🌍 URC Weekend Roundup; The results from across the league and what they mean for the table 🗣...

France may have had the last word in Paris, but this was a day to savour in green. 🗣️ Overall Opinion of the Game; First impressions and...

Ireland host Scotland at the Aviva in a Super Saturday Triple Crown shootout, with the Six Nations title itself still dangling in the balance depending on what unfolds in Paris later that evening.

Ireland ground out a close win over Wales at the Aviva, but it wasn't the commanding display many had hoped for.
