It has been a good day for the Irish provinces in the Pro12, after wins for both Leinster and Munster.

Second half tries from Jimmy Gopperth, Luke McGrath and Tadhg Furlong saw Leinster come from behind to beat Cardiff Blues 22-13 at the Arms Park.

Leinster had trailed at 5 points to Cardiff's 13 at half-time. An early Noel Reid had given Leinster an early lead, but a Manoa Vosawai try and four penalties from Gareth Anscombe put the home team ahead by eight points.

That second half flurry, however, ended up securing a bonus point for Matt O'Connor's side.

Munster have also picked up maximum points from their travels today.

Felix Jones, CJ Stander, Conor Murray and Simon Zebo all crossed the whitewash in a 31-7 win at Zebre.

Munster led by a huge margin of 24-0 at half-time, with a second-half try from Oliviero Fabiani and subsequent conversion from Luciano Orquera eventually putting Zebre on the scoreboard.

Munster now sit second on the Pro12 table with 42 points, a mere point above third-placed Leinster and a point below leaders Glasgow.

However fourth-placed Ospreys could regain the lead tomorrow as they face off against Newport Gwent Dragons.
