Declan Kidney will have been pleased with the performance of a largely inexperienced side against Coventry, when they ran in six tries from Fiachra Baynes (2), Gareth Hayes, David Blaney, David Hewitt and Ken Kennedy.
Trailing 20-10 at the interval, Leinster launched a stinging reply in the second half, largely from the boot of Conor Kilroy who added nine points to his earlier five - though the Blackrock College fullback saw two efforts shave the upright while another struck the crossbar.
