They've lost finals for the previous years.
People go, oh, well, they can't get over the line and they can't.
But this year is different because I reckon they're building and they're going to get more players back.
They put a clip out of James Lowe, I think, yesterday running.
So they're going to start, apart from RG Snyman and a couple of the loose head props, they're going to get a couple of players back towards the semi-finals.
And they're sort of going like that, but still winning without necessarily spanking teams left, right and centre.
Like Hugo Keenan, that's only his second or third game this season, right?
Back in a Leinster jersey.
I think it's about his third game actually, fourth maybe.
So you're starting to get players back and they've obviously got the home semi-final again.
Toulon are coming to town.
They're not firing at the very top of their game, but...
I think some teams you'd rather be not firing at the top of your game now in the hope that there's more improvement towards the semis and finals than actually battering teams by 50, 60 points every week and just getting maybe too overconfident.
It's because of Finn, Jim.
It's because of Finn.
Not only is it you talk about loose head, Tyg Furlong got monstered by Si McIntyre, who I played with at Wasp, great bloke.
I mean, he used to drive Ubers at Wasps.
We used to call him Mr. Uber.
He stuffed Furlong a few times.
So the scrum is genuinely a worry for them.
