Whereas this year, you have it.

You look at what won them the game.

People look at that, look at the Toulon game and go, oh, you know, you nearly lost it.

I'm looking at that going, look at what Joe McCarthy did.

Look at what Ricky Urbano did in the final game.

minutes to win that game it's like that's everything you want in a in a in a team so there's been moments like that all the way through the season and from different players so I think it's really I think there's yeah it's that to me is why I'm saying that's where I'd love to be at that change during this week because there's a real steeliness about it where everybody looks like they're on the same page and I really like that

I've been in that changing room before.

You know, you look at it, if Rocky Elmson hadn't erred on the side of being offside in that...

harlequins oh it was the monster match uh then in harlequins he doesn't do his moment of magic do we win that game probably not did we deserve to win that game that's not a strong memory i have rocky elson being offside was that it was at a moment of controversy at the time or is that just something that you remember he busted cut to get back in crow park and it was a try saving tackle and he was clearly off he was three

offside but his work rate to get there was so sorry it wasn't clearly offside but his work rate was so incredible off the ball to get back there he shut down like a four on two or so I think and it was just an incredible textbook tackle got Stephen Ferris man on ball and shut down the attack and that could have changed the whole swing of that game

Just those times in 2009 in the group stages where you're just there going, yeah, we rode our luck.

In every tournament, you ride your luck.

I think there's a better balance, and I think it hasn't improved.

It's trending in the right direction.

I like the way that Harry Burnett gauges the line as 10, because that's where the space is.

You have to have a first receiver now that can take space when it's given.

You look at the...

You look at the quintessential tent in modern rugby today, and it is Jalabair, it is Ant-Mac, it is Marcus Smith.

Look at Jack Crowley, so both bars.

You have to have that ability.
