it's hard sometimes like it's probably the it's the least amount of clarity we've had around what Leinster are going to do next like I'd say is it but you know Jack made a very interesting point around the defence like obviously it's a it's a high energy defence and what he was talking about is it's high energy for low periods of time because you want to try and get the ball back which I think they are you know you can see that identity alright
But even at that, I think even against Bordeaux, they gave away a try in the 22, didn't they?
Like one phase off left-hand side scrum, which was shocking defence.
Like I think, I can't remember who it was, Rico Ione, maybe really, really tight, really tight, got his read wrong.
It was a simple 9-12 back to 10 and flash it across to the 15 who beat Ioane on an outline.
But like,
it was really, really narrow.
Like when UCD beat us in car con with that, we'd be scratching our heads being like, how have they done it?
They shouldn't beat us with that.
You know, like maybe we had a yellow card or something at the time.
And so some of those things, I think they're still getting wrong.
So like, if you're going to be that aggressive, you have to get it right.
And I wonder sometimes around things that Leo said earlier in the year, how much time do they have their lads on the pitch for?
And it's, I don't know the answer to that.
But it seems like when you think your way through it, coming out of Lyon's tour, back into internationals, I think they were available for one round, most of them, back into November series.
And then you get to Champions Cup, you have to get them back and then they're all being rested in and out of URC.
At what time of the year do they get actual cohesion and a chance to put connections together in that defensive setup, especially when it's so aggressive?
There are things that I think, you know, their coaches have been a bit fed up of.
And I think, you know, Leo's been quite outwardly as well in terms of maybe criticising the RFU or criticising players on player movement, which again, I think there's a massive amount of fatigue in Leinster and there's a lot of fatigue around their supporter base, you know, that they haven't gotten over the line and all of a sudden people are asking questions.
