Leo Cullen and Jacques Nienaber go on the offensive, James Lowe's Leinster exit

And I think when you see, you know, what Bernard said there about Franco going to a kicking game, like it's obviously they understand what they're doing.

They understand what they're trying to do when there's a lighter front field, when there's a lighter backfield.

But like Conor gave away a lot of penalties in the first quarter because they couldn't deal with the mall.

And then Glasgow got them a different way.

And they actually got a couple of tries chalked off that were very, very close that would have made the game a lot different, I would say.

kind of survived and then they got their couple of scores they made it quite close and then unfortunately the Sean O'Brien error wasn't it that put Glasgow back in the driving seat but yeah they've got threats all over the pitch they've got the foundations of their game are unbelievably well drilled

So you're obviously able to layer attack up on top of that because they know they're getting the ball.

RTÉ Rugby Podcast

They can get the ball on the front foot.

And I do agree with you.

When they're missing their internationals, they're still playing a style of game that it's clearly very aligned and very clear to the players and their coach well in the way that they can execute it.

Now, it's funny that they still...

I think it was Tua Pilato, I think it was Rory Dard was too close to him and that pullback pass still went down the ground and Joshua Anna was able to run away with it.

That's a monster I've had but they don't make that many errors.

That's one that would stand out to you and they're really good.

And that's why I think Nigel Carlin is someone that you'd like to get back to Ireland.

I came across him when I was younger and I remember thinking that guy thinks about the game differently and I wasn't as experienced obviously but his trajectory from there has gone up and up with Connacht and then over to Glasgow.

So he'd be a guy that, you know, clearly he's doing it week to week.

And then you see some of the stuff that they're doing within their pods, wingers showing up in different ways to what we've seen already, setting up these kind of phase play, their set piece plays really, but they're happening a couple of phases in and you just know they're confident and they're trying things and it looks like a good place to play rugby and coach as well, I would say.

RTÉ Rugby Podcast

Yeah, I agree with the positivity around Ulster.
