With the attrition so far, I think Leinsters Minis could be sent out to face whatever battered team mkes it thru this game

There was a penalty scored by them in March and it had been their first penalty goal since December. It's been working for them so far this season, but knock out rugby is a different game.

Car crash stuff. Put any Scottish team under the slightest pressure and the result is inevitable.

That's exactly it.
Plenty of time left for them to pull themselves back into the game yet.

They should have just copied Connacht from last night, & take 3 when they're offered.
It's perfectly possible that Munster have someone sent off too, & not getting any kind of score in the half is what loses Glasgow the game.

Way the game was going best thing they could do is not come out after HT and save any injuries/suspensions from the challenge cup final

Munster's energy in defence has been outstanding all night.
Glasgow look great when teams let them run amok, but Munster have shut them down very successfully.

I think they could hammer away all night but Horne is not helping by giving up ground time and again with aimless box kicks.

Yep.
It's that kind of situation where the current laws just don't seem fair.

I don't know if that is clever or not, it runs down the clock but there must have been space out wide with only 13 players in opposition

Glasgow would probably get more value from watching the Munster video recap next week, than their own.
It might now have much razzle dazzle, but they won while only scoring twice, defended brilliantly throughout, & managed the clock in the 2nd half. It was them showing the grit, after losing a slew of key players that Glasgow need to learn.

Why is the Leinster crowd so small?
I'd say a lot are holding onto their money for the Final, or the HEC final.
Too many games, & too many Euros per ticket !
I’m sure I heard them say something about capacity was set at 19,000 and they had sold 16,000. Wonder what that is about
