Leinster stunned by referee report leak

THE Leinster Branch said last night they are “flabbergasted” by the leak of the referee’s report from the Magners League clash between Leinster and Munster at Lansdowne Road on October 6.

A Leinster spokesman added that Brian Blaney’s situation has been “prejudiced” as a result.

The leak detailed outbursts made by Leinster coaches Michael Cheika and David Knox, and hooker Blaney, towards referee Simon McDowell.
