Leinster beat Connacht at the RDS earlier today to move joint top of the Guinness Pro12 table after recording a 24-13 victory over their visitors.

Tries from Adam Byrne and Barry Daly along with 14 points from the boot of Isa Nacewa were enough to steer the team from the capital to their sixth win in seven games.

They now sit in first place on 26 points, level with the Ospreys and Glasgow Warriors.
