FINAL LEINSTER V ULSTER<br />

GUINNESS<br />

WELCOME<br />

As another thrilling season of epic<br />

tackles, running rugby and historymaking<br />

tries comes to its delayed<br />

climax, it is with huge pleasure that<br />

I welcome <strong>Leinster</strong> and <strong>Ulster</strong> to the<br />

hotly anticipated GUINNESS <strong>PRO14</strong><br />

<strong>Final</strong> at AVIVA Stadium. This game<br />

is predicted to be a fantastic display<br />

of rugby, full of Irish passion, with<br />

both teams vying for a chance<br />

to become GUINNESS <strong>PRO14</strong><br />

Champions.<br />

It goes without saying that <strong>2020</strong> has<br />

been a year unlike any other, one<br />

that none of us could have predicted<br />

and one that continues to challenge<br />

us all daily. Over the last number<br />

of months, the absence of sport<br />

left a gap in so many people’s lives.<br />

The return of rugby has been so<br />

welcome, as we reignite our passion<br />

and a hope for the future when we<br />

will all be able to be together again<br />

in the stands.<br />

This clash between interprovincial<br />

rivals <strong>Leinster</strong> and <strong>Ulster</strong> looks to<br />

have all the ingredients of a classic.<br />

Leo Cullen’s <strong>Leinster</strong> side come to<br />

the AVIVA looking to retain their<br />

GUINNESS <strong>PRO14</strong> title. Over the<br />

last three weekends, <strong>Leinster</strong> have<br />

picked up right where they left off in<br />

February, continuing their unbeaten<br />

record with impressive victories over<br />

<strong>Ulster</strong> and Munster to book their<br />

THE RETURN<br />

OF RUGBY<br />

HAS BEEN SO<br />

WELCOME, AS<br />

WE REIGNITE<br />

OUR PASSION<br />

AND A HOPE<br />

FOR THE<br />

FUTURE WHEN<br />

WE WILL ALL<br />

BE ABLE TO<br />

BE TOGETHER<br />

AGAIN IN THE<br />

STANDS.<br />

place in the GUINNESS <strong>PRO14</strong> final.<br />

<strong>Ulster</strong> found their form on Saturday<br />

to claim an impressive comeback<br />

victory against Edinburgh. We were<br />

all at the edge of our seats as Ian<br />

Madigan lined up that last second<br />

kick in BT Murrayfield last weekend.<br />

A thrilling conclusion to another<br />

epic display of rugby in this year’s<br />

GUINNESS <strong>PRO14</strong>.<br />

Wherever you may be viewing the<br />

action, we hope you enjoy what<br />

promises to be a fantastic <strong>Final</strong>.<br />

Good luck to both teams and thank<br />

you for the spirit-lifting performance<br />

you bring to every game.<br />
