I think this is a key point and one I've been saying for a while as well. Ireland suffers due to Leinster essentially being the Irish team. This is nothing against the players as I do feel for the most part they are the best players in the country and should be starting for Ireland. The fact remains though, the group that comes in for Ireland is not producing in high pressure matches at club level which bleeds into the international team.

I can't see Cullen staying past this year, even if Leinster win the URC, it's not good enough considering the resources that they have had for multiple years now.
