Nacewa stars as Leinster cut loose

Isa Nacewa was the key figure in Leinster’s bonus-point victory in last night’s RaboDirect Pro12 clash with an Italian side noted for causing upsets in this competition.

For 60 minutes or so it went according to that plan, until Leinster’s young bucks stormed through to leave the remaining league challengers trailing in their wake.

On this performance, with a so-called half a team, albeit against half a Treviso team, it seems certain Joe Schmidt’s side will go on to secure top spot or at least win a home semi-final.
