If that's not the focus, it is naturally going to wane over time and maybe that's something that they're going to have to bring in and

They've got the right person in there and Johnny to drive it because, you know, he was the standard bearer in Leinster and Ireland for all the time that he was playing.

How the Scotland-Italy game goes is also important.
