15 Hugo Keenan
Had a solid game defensively but was unable to get into those attacking positions he likes to give Leinster go forward ball. Rating: 7
14 Jordan Larmour
A quiet opening half but got better as the match went on. Contested well but no sign of the sparks he can deliver. Rating: 7
13 Robbie Henshaw
Was one of Leinster’s better players on a day turnover killed them. Made ground and added a physical presence. Rating: 8
12 Jamie Osborne
Worked hard inside Henshaw. But was not allowed to show creative side. Was isolated a couple of times in the first half. Rating: 7

11 James Lowe
After opening up Toulouse first half worked hard but quiet. Silly/harsh yellow card for deliberate knock on in injury time. Rating: 7
10 Ross Byrne
He mixed play up well with Crossfield kicks and passing wide. Was good from the tee until he limped out for Frawley. Rating: 7
9 Jamison Gibson-Park
Incredible covering tackle that saved an early try. Got Leinster moving but even he erred a few times in a frantic match. Rating: 7
1 Andrew Porter
Incredible couple for shifts from the prop. Did what he is good at doing, hitting rucks, gaining tough yards. Scrum improved second half. Rating: 7
2 Dan Sheehan
One of Leinster’s better players for his 70 minutes. Almost made the try line in the first half and put himself around the pitch. Rating: 8
3 Tadhg Furlong
Like Porter did huge amounts of work in a competitive breakdown. Contested well in the frontrow with mostly short carries. Rating: 7
4 Joe McCarthy
The young lock caused Toulouse problems. Put in a big game both sides of the ball and didn’t flag as it went into extra time. Rating: 8
5 Jason Jenkins
Picked for his size before injury at half-time. Made some good carries in the first half with a knock on during a scrappy phase from both sides. Rating: 7
6 Ryan Baird
Good lineout option. Was involved all over the pitch and added a turnover to his busy shift. Brought energy to the backrow until Conan arrived. Rating: 7
7 Will Connors
His 45 minutes was a working shift. Was in the thick of most Leinster breakdown work and made some of the hard yards too. Rating: 7
8 Caelan Doris
Had an impactful game and led with authority. Extra-time penalty was an error but otherwise was one of Leinster’s better players. Rating: 8
Replacements
Josh van der Flier and James Ryan made a big impact when they came in with Van der Flier grabbing a try. The other bench players had moments in a fraught extra-time, but as finishers will probably be disappointed how the game finally ended. Rating: 7
Coach – Leo Cullen
The tactics were not what hurt Leinster. The match fell on individual handling errors. Dropping balls, getting isolated and turned over knocked them back every time. Frawley was a drop goal attempt away from winning the game in normal time, before it ran away in extra time. Rating: 7
