But when you're against...

real quality opposition they're not going to give you that they're so well prepared to these teams like the the level of detail planning that goes into into those games alone like i know no mac he's like we've coached together i was assistant coach for eight ten years like i know the level of detail he'll go into but similar jack would have gone through that same level of detail and i know leo would have i know the line out coaches would have scrum coaches would have on a final i

these things happen, you know, and what Leinster have to do is they've got to dive and ask some horrible, horrible questions about, well, how well prepared were we?

Where do we go to now?

What happens now?

Do we have to change our attack?

Do we have to change some of our defence?

What's the good parts that we're doing currently at the moment?

And some of the good stuff can put away teams right up to around semi-final level, but it probably isn't good enough just to get over that line.

Number one is bringing true players who were already under contract before he arrived.

I think we can see that with their front row.

He's managed a transition of older players, I'm going to say.

He's managed the transition of that front row in particular.

He's brought young players through.

He's given them opportunity.

He has trained them within an inch of their lives, if that makes sense.

Stewart is a games-based coach.

They look incredibly fit, is the second obvious thing.

And again, I don't have any data to prove that.

I'm just going on optics of what I see on the pitch.
