Overview

• Munster overpowered Leinster with tries from Brian Gleeson, Tom Farrell and Ethan Coughlan plus a penalty try after an early Ronan Kelleher score for the hosts.
• Leo Cullen said his side were second in hard work, grit and determination and bemoaned a lack of composure on repeated close-range opportunities.
• The head coach cited an uneven pre-season and staggered returns for internationals, admitting the squad is not battle-hardened and that he is not sure of the solution.
• Leinster have lost three of their opening four URC games and sit outside the top eight after a home defeat in front of 51,859 at Croke Park.
• With 21 players now joining Ireland camp, Cullen expects a makeshift selection against Zebre at the Aviva Stadium with debuts likely.
