Leinster gunning for revenge

THEY may lie on the cusp of qualification for the last eight of the Heineken Cup, but Michael Cheika will be warning his players to forget the bigger picture and focus on the task at hand against Edinburgh this Saturday.

Four points above Gloucester at the summit of Pool Two, Leinster hold the whip hand with two matches to go, although there is still plenty of potential for further twists in the road.

Gloucester need to depart Agen’s Stade Armandie with at least four points tomorrow night to take their pursuit of Leinster to Kingsholm the following weekend, but a bonus-point win over the Scots at Donnybrook before that would leave Leinster virtually untouchable.
