@shivers @DrSandraDuffy #Leinster just seemed to run out of ideas once #LaRochelle kept possession. Second loss by one point.

But what a comeback by O'Gara's team.

Cracking atmosphere here, my nerves are shot, need kickoff ASAP. Not sure how much I'll be able to say in this thread outside HT and FT but will welcome all contributions throughout as ever

Came down to discipline, but certainly not luck. Leinster matched them in the forwards and forced a lot of the penalties. We were in clinical mood in several areas and put a really tricky SF to bed early. Loads of great performances but it was the team effort again. #LEIvTLS #HeinekenChampionsCup

My half time snack will be a massive slice of humble pie for any doubts I had over starting Charlie Ngatai after his lay off. Cracking half with loads of key moments. Still all to play for but this scoreline does reflect the half IMO.

Watching #LARvSAR Will Skelton is enjoying playing against his former teammates judging by his smile. He’s certainly helped La Rochelle both as carrier and providing power when driving through rucks/maul. #HeinekenChampionsCup Saracens looked a little lost for ideas towards the end of first half. 16 points behind is a long way to come back from

Catching second half of #TOUvSHA on French TV (via vpn). Enthralling match. 10 minutes left and Toulouse stretched the lead to 13 points #HeinekenChampionsCup

RT @CatherineL2288
The speed from Grant Williams for that try from the sharks was insane. #TLSvSHA #HeinekenChampionsCup

Well again we looked comfortable despite it remaining close into 2nd half. Almost needed to go a man down to click into gear. Great position to be in to disagree with PotM award but I'd have gone for JOB. Still, happy out, first into the final four. Onwards we go.

#LEINvLEIC #HeinekenChampionsCup

Tomorrow’s match in the south of France will be interesting #HeinekenChampionsCup home semi for Leinster just to find out whether it’ll be Toulouse or Sharks

Leinster in control for the most part but a little reminder at the end of the half that the Tigers do have the quality to take chances when offered. Nice quick tap, super finish and exquisite conversion. Which means it's still a one score game and Leinster have a lot of work to do. Hopefully Baird knock not too bad.

Got to D4 early as you do. Need another patient performance tonight mistakes will be punished.
