Neil Francis: Leinster's midfield generals could well be the Ireland centre partnership facing the All Blacks in Chicago

Hostilities resumed and an undercooked Munster side were outclassed but, importantly, were not overwhelmed. They couldn't look after the ball in contact and their vaunted back-row couldn't get any traction in this match. Their tight five did well at scrummage time which kept them in the game because you sensed that when they turned the screw in this phase, Leinster's walls would come tumbling down.
