Rugby: Wins for Leinster and Ulster

It was another successful night for the Irish provinces in the Heineken Cup last night with both Leinster and Ulster defeating English opponents.

Leinster have now won nine consecutive games this season after they comfortably defeated Newcastle Falcons by 28 points to 9 at Donnybrook. Matt Williams' side has now gone 14 games unbeaten at the Dublin venue and there appears to be a rising sense of confidence within the team.
