Awesome stuff from Leinster. The pressure from Biarritz yielded 0 !

I read somewhere that heaslip needed to have a big game if he had any hope of getting on the lines tour. Well he certainly has had a great first half haha

Very strong last 10 mins, if they keep this tempo up could be a awesome 2nd half..

Another try for Leinster at the death, Boss taking a penalty quickly before Madigans long pass puts Nacewa into space. The ball eventually comes loose at the side of a ruck, where Heaslip latches on to it and rounds the last man to score. Sexton converts to give Leinster a commanding lead as Barnes calls time on the half. Join us for the second half, as we see if Biarrittz can respond to Leinster's lightning end to the first half.

Jamie Heaslip - having a massive game

Game over

Try for Leinster, again from good lineout ball. The ball is spread wide to O'Driscoll, whose soft pass puts Kearney through a gap. Kearney draws the last man to put Sexton in for the score, 39 minutes gone.

From a good high box kick from Yachvilli, Leinster fail to gather the ball cleanly, eventually being penalised for offside. Yachvilli continues his flawless start from the tee to again narrow the deficit to one point, 3 minutes left in the half.
