Leo Cullen's Leinster rounded off a brilliant season for Irish rugby with a 40-32 win over Scarlets at the weekend to win the Guinness PRO14 Championship.
It followed on from their 15-12 win over Racing 92 in Bilbao earlier this month with most of the Leinster side involved in Ireland's Grans Slam success as well.
Andy Dunne joined Monday's OTB AM to discuss the season as a whole, telling Ger: "I think it's a fairer argument to ask if they're the best Leinster side? I would say they're the best Leinster squad - I don't think Leinster have ever had that many internationals - followed by that many really good, nearly internationals, next-in-line.
"They've used 55 players in the PRO14 this year - It's an outrageous amount to be able to call on and very few of those people let them down on any occasion.
"Even when you reflect on have there been many individually poor performances across the whole breadth of a season - there's probably one or two you could recall but I think without doubt, they've the biggest and strongest overall squad that Leinster have ever assembled but are they the greatest starting 15? I'm not sure," he added.

Michael Cheika's Leinster side which beat Leicester in '09 included Chris Whittaker at nine, Sexton at ten, Luke Fitzgerald at eleven, Gordon D'Arcy and Brian O'Driscoll at twelve and thirteen, Shane Horgan at fourteen and Isa Nacewa at full-back.
"I think that's a pretty incredible line-up when you hear it...I wouldn't venture too far away from that backline!"
Given the Dublin-based outfit have now collected four European titles along with a multitude of domestic success over the past decade - where does this Leinster team sit in the overall scale of things?
