Rugby: O’Meara delivers for Leinster

Leinster 32 Ulster 30

The former Irish scrum half received a standing ovation when he was replaced by Brian O'Riordan eight minutes from the end of normal time. By then, O'Meara had earned enough to win the Man of the Match Award with a personal contribution of 22 points and a 100% return from his goal kicking.

But instead of romping to an easy win, Leinster conceded two late tries to the league leaders and Ulster garnered a bonus point that could, by the end of the season, prove priceless.
