So where to pivot next, I don't know.
He kind of is where he is on that front.
So I don't know.
There's an easy pivot away there for him.
I think you're right, but I think mid-season, I'm talking about short-term shift, where does he shift short?
You're talking about a long-term plan here, go back to base, build a team off the ground, it's a longer project, but for the next six months, where does he pivot to?
He has what he has now, so I get your point on the longer term, I'm talking more short-term, I think he's very limited option short-term.
I'd be a little less optimistic, you know, than Rudd there.
The reason I say that is, we saw again how the other way to crack a blitz is to go through it.
And that try from Bayonne was off the training park.
It was a beautiful try.
You know, you spread the defence out and you go through it.
Or we've talked about a lot of teams trying to get around it and some teams are very successful, like La Rochelle.
But if you look at... If you freeze frame that...
Leinster midfield when that strike runner went through, it's like it's all over the shop.
Gary Ringrose is up in the middle of nowhere waving like a drowning man and Henshaw's sitting back and it's just chaotic.
Which again, I won't go and miss on other teams looking at that.
So I don't want to go battering their defence again but that to me looked like very vulnerable
I think they were lucky.
I think they worked very hard.
