Champions Cup: Leinster thump Gloucester while Sharks win at Bordeaux

Leinster ran in nine tries as they eased past a weakened Gloucester side in their Champions Cup clash at the RDS Arena on Friday. James Lowe, Josh van der Flier, Ronan Kelleher, James Ryan, Luke McGrath, Jordan Larmour and Caelan Doris scored tries for the hosts. George Skivington's squad was weakened ahead of Gloucestershire's Premiership trip to Leicester. Heineken star-of-the-match Dori stole possession from Ben Meehan and lobbed a pass for Lowe to score.

Ireland ranked No 1: 12 games that chart their rise to the top

One refreshing aspect of the past two months has been the relative lack of World Cup discussion.
