Not the best of starts.
Leinster are the first PRO14 team to play South African opposition in their backyard this afternoon, and currently lead the Kings 7-3 at the Nelson Mandela Bay Stadium.
The Irish province are on a two-week tour of the country, with a game scheduled against the Cheetahs next weekend. Things however, haven’t gotten off to the best of starts in Port Elizabeth, with a dismal attendance for the first game.
Less than 500 people are in attendance for the first PRO14 fixture in South Africa. Lets hope things improve going forward.
Leinster emerge to polite applause followed by eerie silence. Less than 500 here, it's weird pic.twitter.com/fNmWK6ziRK
