In the end, neither side got what they wanted, but just after referee Mike Adamson had blown for full-time, Luke McGrath attempted to use his captain's challenge. “Lukey was trying to get a captain's challenge in for a high tackle I think,” Leinster head coach Leo Cullen said after his side's 21-17 win. “Again, the captain's challenge is proving challenging, I think it's fair to say. Earlier in the game at the RDS, Iain Henderson used his captain's challenge for an alleged high tackle by Robbie Henshaw on Robert Baloucoune. I don't think it was decisive anyway but it meant that we lost our captain's challenge which was disappointing."
