Gordon D’Arcy

I'm just like, this guy's bluffing.

He's saying what he wants to say and he's saying the right things, but I don't believe him.

But I've also been in that changing room when the coach is saying the things that you believe yourself and it resonates really powerfully and you finish the season.

So even though it's not perfect, you know you're training in the right way.

So we would have had that with Cheka for a number of years before ultimately winning in 2009.

So I think, you know, this is a really good season for Ulster.

Yeah, he's not Stu McCluskey.

So yeah, all the little, all the little things when you are the underdog going in, you need everything to go perfectly.

And it didn't.

But that's okay.

They didn't, they didn't completely wilt, didn't go into the silk.

They still kept playing.

They got carried out in their shield.

As I said, scored tries.

I was talking with my one of my neighbors and he plays tennis and he was talking about he lost his tennis match was there at least maybe you won your tennis match and say somebody could have won this weekend I said no he said I said I don't mind losing he said I played horrific I said that's the bit that killed me and the previous week he said I won but I also played bad there can be a comfort in performance

And there will be aspects of that they will go.

And I think, you know, Leo was kind of stretching a little bit as well for that to say, oh, there was some stuff within their control.

But for Ulster, some things within their control.

But there's enough in that performance for them to go, OK, well, we didn't shit the bed and we didn't just the scoreline was big, but we gave a half decent account of ourselves.

Just, it's like we just need players like him in the Irish system.
