And I just thought...
I just thought there was no real base evidence.
I know they'd scored in the first attack when they got into 22.
And that's Leinster's attack effectively at the moment is getting into 22 and overpower teams.
And they can do that for the vast majority of teams.
They just weren't able to do it to Bordeaux.
But I don't think they're a team who look like they have the phase at game in terms of the execution of passing, the shapes.
from 50 metres out to go 50.
I don't think they're that kind of team at the moment.
And I actually thought from above, a lot of the shapes they were playing were unbelievably predictable and easy to shut down.
I don't think they asked a huge amount of questions of Bordeaux.
And hence then, if you're not in that flow, well then, just take your medicine and kick it off and get into the dressing room and get the message.
So I can imagine for Leo and Jack and Tyler coming down the lift thinking it's 28-7 and it's 35-7.
Like, it's horrific.
It's horrific.
It's another shock, you know.
But look, it's easy in hindsight.
But I admire Lenzer's team.
They never give up.
They fought hard, et cetera.
