Writing in the Scotland on Sunday, Iain Morrison previews next weekend's Magners League Grand Final showdown between Munster and Leinster.
"The worm had turned, the axis of power had shifted from south to north, the "ladyboys" of Dublin were in the ascendant and whichever Munster wit coined that phrase was hoping like hell that no one recalled it now. Munster have won just one of their last six matches against their old rivals and, throughout those 480 minutes of rugby, the men in red have failed to breach Leinster's try line once.
"It is only fitting that these two teams meet in Saturday's Magners League final because they are the best two sides in the competition by an embarrassing margin, head, shoulders and torso above the rest. The Ospreys have the money but want for organisation, mental fortitude and a winning culture. The Blues fall short at the highest level and Ulster are still working their way back to the top. The rest are also-rans, bit-part players, scenery shifters rather than main characters."
