Sam Prendergast plays starring role as Leinster secure bonus-point win over Clermont

Big picture. Seven tries, a bonus-point win in France, a dominant scrum and lineout, the constituent parts of a super pack performance, collectively and individually. Small picture. Leinster will reflect on untidy passages, lack of precision, some wayward passing and, at times, an absence of stickability in their first-up tackling.

On balance, the ledger is appreciably positive, the only material downside that impressive number eight Jack Conan was walking around in the aftermath with his arm in a sling, a legacy of a dunt he received when scoring a second-half try.
