    Finals are always the same...its fcuking insane but there seems to be plenty who bought tickets in hope of Leinster/Munster getting there.
    Have relations in London so will be no expense on accomadation,even more drink money so :D

    Leinster done so much to increase interest in the rest of Leinster these days

    I had numerous tickets in my basket during the Thomond Park quarter final
    but decided not to go once Munster were beaten.It should be a cracking game
    all the same and Twickers is one of the Worlds great stadiums.Shame it seems to
    take forever to get to from Central London.

    Flying into Gatwick, any idea what's the best route to take.

    Only me and the bro heading that route but might see if there are any other supporters on the flight and share a taxi

    It's about 30 miles from Gatwick to Twickenham so it could work out quite expensive.There probably wouldn't be a problem getting a few more to cut the cost.
    Alternatively take the train to Clapham Junction,change there for Waterloo and you will be able to get a train from there to Richmond.
