Mascot for the Cardiff game last Friday, Conor McNamara pictured with captain Paul O'Connell before kick-off.
With four games to go in the Magners League, or in Cardiff Blues case five, it's increasingly looking like three of the four qualifiers for the knock-out stages will be Irish.
Munster's win in Cardiff on Friday leaves them in pole position to be one of the four although they face a tough run-in.
Leinster will probably qualify for a home semi final given that they have the easiest finish of the contenders. After Saturday's trip to Limerick, two of Leinster's three remaining games are at home and third away to Aironi.
Ospreys should also be in the mix while
Ulster should sneak in ahead of Cardiff Blues particularly if they win next weekend in Ravenhill.
