it to be had that richie murphy will have to decide over the next couple of weeks um you know what way he sets up his team and if james human one presumed he'll be fit what way they set up then but i think that all you can do and this is something we've been all three of us have touched on in the podcast over the year over the season is that when you get your opportunity you take your chance and i think i thought you possibly he's done that exceptionally well yeah i told you took his chance

No, it hasn't snowed.

I find it very disconcerting.

Now, first of all, I'll say that I think that the laws are, laws are an ass and it's very difficult for any referee set of officials to officiate in the game.

But when you get the number of discrepancies in similar incidents in games with different outcomes in terms of what's decided, it's very difficult.

It can make it, it's like lighting fuses of players and, you know, everybody gets frustrated because they think, hang on a second, the same

similar incident happened and there's now a different outcome.

And there were aspects of it.

I just thought that some of the collisions were similar.

I think it's a very difficult thing.

I think the game is very difficult to referee.

I used one example and there were lots on Saturday.

I used one example of Josh Vander Vlier picking a ball up at a rock and

two hands he's all rights to the ball so at that point if anything happens to him it's a penalty against too long but what happens is that he he lifts the ball so he's legal he lifts the ball in two hands and he gets buffeted the ball drops back on the too long side they continue to attack they score a try and in that sequence in the next sequence of play harry burns caught offside and

he is the second Leinster player to get Sinbind in that instance.

So if the correct decision is made at that point, then none of what ensues will take place.

So I think that is frustrating.

There were head collisions in the game, and it's got to the stage now where...

If you look at the match on Saturday, there were incidents in that game that you would argue the toss, there was a lack of consistency.

And it wasn't just head collisions, there were other aspects of the game.
