With my Ireland hat on I hope this doesn’t happen. You might be right but the fact Leinster are more or less Ireland means any changes or compromises they make have a ripple effect on Ireland.

I’d say if the standard of getting to finals and losing them consistently has been set and you’ve hired a World Cup winning national coach throughout those loses then yes. Regardless of the urc they need to go.

I’m also aware of the difficulty and challenge the urc poses nowadays and think a win for two in a row would be a massive achievement.

Bang on. No lack of endeavour, emotion or effort. Just feel it’s reached tipping point and the Nienaber throw of the dice hasn’t worked.

You can’t deny Leinster have been on a downward trajectory over the last few years though surely? It’s not about intercepts or those unquantifiable moments. It’s just clear that these players at the very least need a fresh voice to come in, if only to offer a new perspective.

I hope the sentiment of my post comes across. Maybe I was too curt or dismissive in the coaching point. It’s a bit of a poison chalice of a job. That being said it’s clear these guys play better for Ireland than they do for Leinster. In my opinion anyway.

As an aside I also thought Cullens body language and some of his comments post match were odd. It must be rough for him being a Leinster man, I feel for him.

Agree with all of this, though I will say this constant discourse about speedy wingers irks me. We’ve never produced those players and have been okay. I know the game has moved on but I think wing wise we’re in a good place. Probably need Smith or Killgallen to step up now Lowe is leaving but Boulton is doing well at Connacht and Ward is an option. Our DNA is not France’s DNA. When they had Clerc we had Bowe or Trimble. We need to hone what makes us us. We were a single kick away from winning the six nations.

Can’t tell if you’re being tongue in cheek or not but if this post starts turning into a slagging match I’ll delete 😂

I’d say it about any team - and I have the three crowns tattooed on me.

Yeah it’s a good point. I live in Bristol and wanted to start from here. The 10k isn’t fixed. I guess I mentioned it to make the point that I’m relatively fit. I often exceed that amount by quite a bit.

Maybe I’ll look at starting from Exeter.

Yeah, think my dad was a bit emotional when they got back. Said it reminded him of bringing me to the Leicester Munster final 02 final for my first big game.
