Munster and Leinster play in the quarter-finals of the ERC at the weekend what do people think will happen. I think Leinster with a full house will win, but I doubt if Munster will get any change out of Leicester.

Don't care really what people think just hoping to annoy the people who hate mudeaters, egg chasers etc. etc.:)

I can't wait for the Leinster game. A full Lansdowne Road for the game, it should be brilliant. Leicester will be very difficult for Munster but I gave them no chance of getting through against Glocester either so who knows.

Yeah, thats the thing about Munster. They should get well beaten but they probably won't. Glocester was amazing and if thay win away to Leicester it will have been as good a performance as that.

Will the Leinster game clash with the City-Pats match?

I dont see Munster getting through at all.

Leinster should get through and if they do they'll reach the final I'd say

Leinster game is at 3.45 I think so It will a bit I suppose with the City match at 5. Doubt it will be the kind of game that is over by half time.

None of them will be. They're all gonna be very close games. Leinster and Munster to make it through.

Will the Leinster match be on tv in the Horseshoe before the city/pats game?

It was a great performance and result by Munster.
What are the odds on a Leinster v Munster final at Lansdowne.
If that happens I don't know what the atmostphere would be like. I'd be happy if either team won it and I'm a Leinster man.

I don't really care whether Munster or Toulouse make it. Either an all Irish final or the glorious return of the legend: Trev Brennan. :)

Legend? Not so sure about that he would not get into either Munster or Leinster teams. Which of course is good news for us in 2 weeks!

The idea of two Irish teams in the final of the most prestigious club competition in the world is some idea, and you would be a fool to bet against it. You could not find a stadium big enough for that.

Leinster played really well on sat and should of won by more, did not see the end but I hear they got a bit of a fright. Munster were absolutely awesome, it was thier best performance since they beat Toulouse away in 2000. Absolutely battered Leicester. It was great stuff. Surely thay deserve to win it now?

I thought Leinster were disappointing. They had so much of the ball but didn't finish off the moves. They should have been 25 points up at half time and then nearly blew it near the end. They'll want to play a bit better than that if they're going to win the competition. As for Munster, they played well but Leicester were nowhere near the level they played at last season. I can see why they're so far off the pace in England.
