Show notes
Leinster went to Galway without 17 internationals and came home 50-5 winners: seven tries, 15 line breaks to one, and 20 points from Joey Carbery.
Cian is joined by Simon, Avril and Joseph to work out how a side this young pulled it off: the intent, the blitz clicking with the third-choice defenders, Todd Lawlor's night, and which of the young lads is closest to an Ireland call. We also get into Carbery and Gunne's Ireland XV call-ups, Noel McNamara lined up as Leo Cullen's successor and what that means for the blitz after Nienaber, and Cian Healy back in the building.
Then on to Ireland v Argentina at the Aviva (Friday, 8.10pm) and Leinster's 17 in green: Prendergast or Frawley at 10, Henshaw or Osborne at 13, the fallout from Tadhg Furlong being cleared, and the panel's score predictions.
