RTÉ Rugby Podcast · Leinster go back to back and who will replace Leo Cullen in 2027? · 24 Jun 2026 podcast

And, you know, not for one minute slagging anybody, Neil.

You know, that comes with experience.

The first final, you lose all the line-outs you did.

You didn't really dominate the scrum where the area is where you could really put a stamp down.

And as Bernard said quite rightly, you needed the referee who's been around just to see a couple of pictures early on to make sure that he can actually, you know, not go away from what he sees.

And let's be fair.

I mean, it took a long time before the Bulls team actually got dominance, if they got dominance at all.

No doubt.

I mean, I said it to you last week as well.

It's Barcelona of rugby, Leinster.

And it's like coaching an international job.

I mean, if you think about it, people say they want to coach an international team.

That's as close to getting an international gig by coaching a club team.

But also, it would be wrong of me not to tell you that I've had lots of dealings with Leo.

I've seen Leo play for the Irish U21 team in Argentina when I was coaching South African U21.

So that's how long I've known Leo for.

And I was at that same coaching conference in Italy when he told me that he had been tapped on the shoulder to take over Leinster as an interim coach and asked me what I thought.

And I said, grab it, my mate.

It's a wonderful opportunity and it speaks volumes for him too, Neil.

I know he's a real Leinster man, but he's a rugby man too and he's a wonderful guy.
