HCup Rd1 (Pool 5): Leinster (9) v (6) Exeter Chiefs @ RDS (15:40, Saturday 13 October 2012)
First topic message reminder :
Exeter get welcomed into the Heineken Cup with a fabulous opening fixture. Definitely a case of being thrown in at the deep end.
Leinster have been slow to kick into gear so far this season. We have been leaking points in all our games and have a good few injury doubts with names like Healy, Quinn Roux, SOB, McLaughlin, Ruddock, Dom Ryan, Boss, BOD, Darcy, O'Malley, Conway, Nacewa, Fitzgerald, Kearney all injuried to some degree or other.
That said, Leinster at home in the HCup I'm going for a Leinster win, Exeter not to get a LBP, and Leinster not to get a TBP!

Wasn't the first score against Tigers in 09 final a long range drop goal?

Just turned over from the Scarlets game
What has happened to Leinster? Still, now they have a chance for the lead.

Sexton and Kearney are both quite good at the long range drop goal.
That was a dumb penalty to give away by Exeter by the way.

They have not had the rub of the green with the ref thats for sure. They have put in a very spirited effort though.
Still not over. DG time?

Lucky escape there.. Much deserved bonus point loss for chiefs.
Leinster will be hoping for the return of a few players and a bit of form soon.

Scarlets, despite just getting thrashed will target next weeks game. And hopefully have 15 men on the field for the full 80. Any injured Leinstermen returning to your team next week?

Full marks to Exeter. They should have won that. Except for a dodgy ref.
Think that result along with Munster's capitulation puts paid to any gripes about Pro 12 clubs getting an advantage over resting players before European games.
The English and French teams have smartened up this season and are reaping the benefits.

I'm not sure how you can come to that conclusion based on two games.

No I wouldn't conclude anything this soon either but I think most fans had a few of the French teams as favourites to make the KO stages. A simple decision to make just by reading their team sheets.

You're right. I should have added:
Clermont Auvergene 49-16 Scarlets
Edinburgh 45 - 0 Saracens
Edit: [Whoops - Edinburgh 0- 45 Saracens]

It will be interesting if Rob Baxter's usual phlegmatic approach to the post match interview is tested by that refereeing performance.
It really was poor from the ref.

I think the English club's objections are that by the time Exeter and Leinster play the return fixture, Exeter will be fighting tooth and nail to get back in to the HC via their league position. Leinster will be guaranteed a place no matter what. We're still fairly early in the season at the moment and the impact of league matches haven't been felt yet.

I agree that the ref had a poor game, but not for just Exeter.
If you watched the first 15-20 minutes of that game and told someone that a try wouldn't be scored in the whole match they would of laughed at you. I think both teams(as I said above) wanted quick ball and to go wide. The ref wouldnt facilitate that in fact by the end of the first half he had awarded something like 25 penalties. It may not of just been the refs fault as both Leinster and Exeter did a lot of sneaky stuff to disrupt each others ball, but the ref set the tempo of the game with the number of penalties he gave early on.
In saying all that, had it been an open game with a lot of quick ball and slick backs moves I think Leinster still would of won.

are you somehow saying that both teams had bad decisions against them, because i'm sorry but Exeter were far more worse off. Leinster should of had someone binned for 10 minutes.

Which incident do you think someone should of binned for nathan?
I didn't really see anything worth someone being binned for as if the ref hadn't given so many penalties early doors the game would of flowed much better and there would of been much less nonsense at the breakdown.

Artful the Leinster fullback should have been binned in the first 10 minutes for a cynical trip on a Exeter player.
