And that could have been another win for us.

Off the back of what was a kind of challenging year, similar in ways to what Leinster have gone through this year, we still felt there was a big performance in us on the day.

And while we lost, we certainly did ourselves proud on the day, I thought.

No, not really Ryadak being red.

It's just everyone's in disappointment and everyone knows that there's going to be an individual moment.

They could have done something slightly better.

Obviously, the one that I made was glaringly obvious for everyone to see.

Look, when you actually go through it, the space is there.

The option was there.

the right one, but the execution was what let me down.

I never really felt like I had a full grip of the ball.

11 years later, I can still nearly visualize the ball in my hand and not fully having my fingertips on the seam the way I like it.

But yeah, look, it was really disappointing.

You would still do a review, but probably more individually with the coach as opposed to it being in front of the team.

But if there's opportunities to progress, coaches aren't going to miss it.

No, you don't.

And even leading into a week like this, where we're playing Toulon again, it does bring up those memories and just that feeling of regret.

And that's what sport gives you.

It's an opportunity to do it on the day.

And if you don't take it, unfortunately, you're going to carry it with you for probably the rest of your life.
