RTÉ Rugby Podcast · URC Grand Final special with Jake White and Bernard Jackman · 17 Jun 2026 podcast

And Jake has done the recruitment, got the systems in place.

I'm sure it's difficult to watch it.

I'm sure they can take great pride if they were able to

get over the line because a lot of the systems and the squad that he hired and signed are still there but for Leinster I think they have to win they have to win there's a lot of stuff negativity going around fans are disengaged more than ever and a win is the only thing that people want I think if you're a Leinster fan

Yeah, I think they have to start low, Wilco low to start.

You've got to show PRD that you're dominant in that area.

And from the Bulls' point of view, you'd like to think they'd need a scrum quite early in the game on their own put-in.

If you remember, the Stormers had dominance at scrum time as well, but the first 20 minutes were quite messy.

There was a lot of... Holly Davison, I thought, you know, she...

The scrum was messy rather than any team were allowed to show dominance.

And it was only really after 20 minutes that the Stormers got to show their superiority there.

So if I was Ackerman, I'd be trying to start my best and stop Leinster starting quickly.

I know they might not have the juice coming off the bench at the end, but...

It'd be a big gamble for me not to start your best team against Leinster away from home and try and get some early dominance, particularly in an area where Leinster may not be at their best and it's an area that the Bulls are very strong in, particularly the scrum.

Yeah, that's once a season stuff and very rarely against a top team you can come back from that deficit.

So they've got to be on the money.

I think they will be.

I think...

The surely confidence levels are high.

They've got quality side as well.
