A bad day in Dublin for Leinster…
Leinster put in a thoroughly disappointing performance as they lost 33-6 to Wasps at home in the RDS.
The three-time European Champions were put to the sword by a creative Wasps side inspired by Ulster bound Charles Piatau.
Leinster looked shockingly devoid of ideas at times as they failed to score after the 17th minute of the game.
The game was seen as a must win by many people considering the difficulty of the group also containing Bath and Toulon, both of which are arguably a tougher opposition than Wasps.
Leinster now face a enormous battle to simply get out of the group as they face Bath next weekend in the Recreation Ground.
Here’s how the internet reacted to the defeat and performance from Leinster…
Never seen Leinster play so bad #ERCC 😳

"Pretty awful, very inaccurate. We gave Wasps easy scores" is Leo Cullen's initial assessment

Leinster were a joke today

#LEINvWAS Scoreline was bad but the performance from #Leinster was much more worrying. I hope the Bath game is very different next week!

Somewhere, now, online, a Leinster fan is writing about how this is Matt O'Connor's fault
