Toulouse were absent for the first time last season, and in their absence Leinster were emulating Stade’s fourth star. It’s one of the things I’d like to see, 15 Leinster players running out in green. TOULOUSE: T Ramos; C Kolbe, S Guitoune, R Ntamack, M Médard; Z Holmes, S Bézy; C Castets, J Marchand (capt), C Faumuina, F Verhaeghe, J Tekori, R Elstadt, A Placines, S Tolofua. LEINSTER: J Larmour; J Tomane, G Ringrose, R Henshaw, J Lowe; J Sexton (captain), L McGrath; C Healy, S Cronin, T Furlong; D Toner, J Ryan, R Ruddock, J van der Flier, J Conan. Replacements: J Tracy, J McGrath, A Porter, S Fardy, S O’Brien, N McCarthy, R Byrne, R O’Loughlin.
