You were at that game in the round of sixteen, the Challenge Cup, getting hammered away to the quarter in the quarterfinals of the URC to the Bulls, getting hammered away to Bath, getting hammered away by Ulster, getting hammered away by Gonnet.
Like it was an it was a it w just about squeezed into the top eight in the end.
It was not a vintage month monster season.
And this has been part of a steady, gradual decline for five years now.
They've had two home knockout ties in the last five seasons, neither of them in the Champions Cup.
They haven't had a home tie since they were beaten by Toulouse five years ago in the quarterfinals in Aviva in that goal kicking competition.
I've calculated that at their last 22 matches since then in the Champions Cup, they've won seven.
Seven out of twenty-two, they've won.
This is the lowest ebb since the 90s.
And Munster, what they do in the Champions Cup.
Cup very much defines their season.
So they've got a hit the ground running against Glasgow in a major way and then they've got the bulls a week later, then they go up to Ulster for Derby, and then they play Racing and Park Kiev in their first Champions Cup match.
And they need a significant upturn in perfor in results and performances this season.
I do think that Macmillan is very much re energized and enthused himself, Nathan.
He's a cook me as a different figure last Tuesday.
Listened to him I was down in Limerick and the HBC for his press briefing.
He's very honest fella.
He speaks he shoots in the hip.
He he he he says what's on his mind.
It was interesting to hear him talk about coming in last season and not coming in with a fresh broom and changing everything and standing back and letting it continue as it was to a large degree.
