Boss fears champions could pay the penalty for low try-count

Isaac Boss hopes Leinster’s low try count in a troubled Heineken Cup campaign doesn’t come back to haunt them.

The defending champions fought for their lives, scored five tries and picked up a bonus-point victory over Llanelli Scarlets at the RDS on Saturday but Boss isn’t convinced it will be enough.

Leinster travel to Exeter’s Sandy Park this weekend knowing a bonus point win is the minimum required and the holders might also need a bucket load of scores to enhance their eight-try haul from five games.
