Leinster 21
Ulster 3
Monday May 16 2011
Tries from Eoin Collins, Richie Dunne and Ross Barbour helped Leinster end their campaign on a high at Coolmine RFC on Saturday afternoon.
Ulster made the brighter start, but Leinster soon settled into the game.
It seemed like only a matter of time before Leinster took the lead though, and they did just that on 31 minutes when No 8 Collins burst over the line to the right of the posts.
Rory Drysdale opened Ulster’s account with a 34th-minute penalty, but Leinster finished the half strongly with a converted try by Dunne giving them a 14-3 half-time lead.
Leinster gained a stranglehold on the game and finally registered their third try in injury-time when the excellent Barbour burst through on the right wing to seal a comprehensive victory.
