So these are kind of crucial matches now.

So I feel like you're probably allowed one or two of these instances maybe a little bit earlier, Will.

But this is real crunch time now.

It's like the Gary Ringrose thing with Leinster to me.

It's kind of like this is the time of year where it's kind of unforgiving.

And, you know, like maybe getting line out back there might have settled things down.

They could have mauled it.

They could have got a penalty.

It could have just, you know, calmed them down a little bit.

They're kind of big.

They don't seem like big things.

But to me,

everything's big now.

Everything is, this time of the year is a crunch time.

This is where you have to have had, you know, as much of the thinking.

Like, it's not a, it's not a, it's not like a black swan event where you just cannot predict, oh, like the hooker going off the pitch, you know, and we don't, like, and the next phase isn't a, or the next time we have to have a hooker is a scrum.

Like, it could very well be a line out.

To me, it's not a, it's not a, you know, complete, you don't have to have out of the box thinking to figure this out and say, well, maybe we have to have some kind of plan in place.

And maybe they did,

but it's not a good look when you switch over after one bad, like it wasn't even that bad a throw.
