Key quotes
Tadhg
Furlong (Leinster Rugby): “If we look back to 2018, both home and away, it was tough rugby and you know, I suppose we luckily came out on the right side of the result both times. Since then, they have gone on and really pushed on, obviously winning it last year, doubling up with the Premiership as well, obviously a quality team. Obviously Sandy Park is a fortress for them, we have a big task on our hands at the weekend.”
Rob Baxter (Exeter Chiefs): “Leinster were the first team we played in the Heineken Cup in 2012 and there was a fair bit of underestimation from them… they sneaked through 9-6 over in Ireland. Since then we’ve met a few times and they’ve come out on top, but we’ve moved on to a degree. I’m not saying we’re meeting on a level playing field, but it’s far more level than to talk about past history too much.”
