Correct scores have been very tricky to predict over the last few weeks – in three of the last six games Leinster have scored over 50 points.
By and large though, except for one supporter straying off the reservation last week, FanScore players have correctly predicted Leinster wins.
Last week’s game against Castres added another layer of complexity, however: a draw.
A draw? Who ever heard of a draw?
Well, unfortunately, none of our FanScore players predicted one. Though 93.5% of you did go for a Leinster win.
That doesn’t get you any kind of loyalty bonus, but at least you weren’t part of the 6.5% that went for a Castres victory…

The stats
A more straightforward scoreline did mean more correct predictions than last week.
There were 46 correct total tries scored predictions (six), though only 23 correctly guessed the time of the game’s first points (Johnny Sexton’s penalty inside the opening 10 minutes).
In his ninth game in blue we saw Robbie Henshaw score his first Leinster try – followed by his second later in the game.
Just three players predicted that the 23-year-old would score the game’s first try – the faith shown in the Ireland centre immediately rewarded!
Henshaw was also your clear pick as FanScore Man of the Match with 59% of the vote.
