Just like good old days for Leinster

Leinster 33 Castres 15: Another French behemoth brought to earth. Five tries posted. Bonus point secured with oodles of time to spare. And all on the back of an afternoon balanced by the brute force of a dominant pack and a backline speckled with brilliance.

What’s not to like?

European days like these used to be just routine in Ballsbridge but a dire Champions Cup run that delivered five defeats and just the single victory last term raised the currency of this particular effort beyond the norm.
