Babillot comes in from the side from a Leinster maul and they away side get the penalty and Madigan will go for the posts just inside the Castres half in what will be the last play of the first half.

Torrid stuff. Very defensive game.

Madigan puts his side in front and on the basis of play so far Leinster deserve to be in front.

You can say that again

Castres are penalised again from the breakdown and Madigan will get the chance to put Leinster in front just before half time.

agreed..since he came to leinster we have seen a serious lack of it

Leinster lose possesstion again and Castres clear the ball.

moc needs to inject a bit of innovation into the leinster attacking play.

Great take in the air from Faasalele who calls the mark. Palis clearance is poor and Leinster get the lineout on the Castres 22.

Mach like so many in this game knocks forward in the tackle and from their D'arcy kicks Leinster out of trouble.
