But just more generally speaking,
You'll win more matches if you can keep teams to kind of manageable enough scores against your scorelines against you.
You know, it's a good recipe to start off with being just a bit stingy, be difficult to beat.
I feel like I'm the most boring person ever watching rugby, but it's where I start.
thinking about a team being good is if they're stingy on that side of the ball.
To me, it kind of tells you a lot more about a team than just their technique or how they think about defense.
It tells me how close-knit you are and how up for the fight you are physically.
Because if you're good at those two things, you don't even have to have the best system in the world.
If you just have a big heart, good togetherness, and a reasonable kind of plan about how the other team are going to attack you and you can deliver on the plan that you're trying to implement,
to me it tells a lot about a team it tells me you're going to be you know you're a good team and I think most of those teams can generally be pretty good on the other side of the ball and they don't have to be that great to be very very successful so I was really pleased with them I think there'll be a handful if they can make it in I don't
Edinburgh will be dangerous, no doubt about that, and they've got to go away, that, that, that, all that kind of stuff.
But I would not like to be playing Connacht at this stage of the season.
I think they look really strong.
I think they look like they understand how they want to play.
I think they've got a lot of players who are actually in form, like a lot of guys who are actually playing good rugby.
I mean, Prendergast was outstanding.
I thought the two scrum halves were very good throughout the game.
I just thought Bundy looked good he looked sharp when he had his kind of few involvements and the pack are kind of humming you know I was really impressed with them guys so I've gone on a bit I'm conscious I'm going to give Rudds a go but I just that was kind of my impression of Connacht and just how impressed it was and then obviously the other side where Munster were very worrying
No, I just thought it was just bad luck.
You could see they were kind of twisting around.
