Leinster: top of the pile and still a work in progress

Four URC rounds gone and Leinster sit top of the pile with four wins and four try-scoring bonus points for a maximum haul of 20 points. Glasgow have actually scored more points and more tries, but the Irish province is clearly responding positively to the promptings of their new attack coach.

Interesting, then, to listen to Tyler Bleyendaal on a Monday afternoon, less than 48 hours after they claimed a comfortable win against Munster in front of almost 81,000 people at Croke Park, and come away with the impression of a project very much still in its infancy.
