Leinster fail to get out of neutral in a monsoon in Cardiff, and Ulsters away form once again hurts them as they lose to Ospreys.

The Lockdown interviews have been brilliant. Ciaran Gaffney one was particularly raw and thought Padraig handled it excellently
ppadraic comments that munster backs need to do more to progress in the knockout stages. These same backs scored all 41 points & consistently demonstrate the best kick-chase game in the competition!!!!
Interesting head to head contests in Thomond pk ahead of 6 nations.
