DAN McFARLAND SAYS Robbie Henshaw’s unpunished tackle on Robert Baloucoune wasn’t the decisive factor in Ulster’s Rainbow Cup defeat to Leinster, even though the in-form centre went on to score the crucial third try for the home side.
Henshaw floored Ulster wing Baloucoune with a huge tackle in the first half, which was examined by referee Mike Adamson following a captain’s challenge from Iain Henderson.
