I won't have anyone convince me that they can defend in that space.

Hello everybody and welcome to the Left Wing Podcast.

Today we'll be looking back on Saturday's Champions Cup final.

Bordeaux 41, Leinster 19.

A fifth consecutive Champions Cup final defeat for Leinster and we're going to discuss the game and where they go from here after what was kind of a humiliating match in many respects and plenty of questions to be asked and answered over the direction of the province in the short to medium term.

I'm glad to be joined by Luke Fitzgerald as always.

Luke, how are you?

Yeah, good, Will.

How are you?

Doing well.

Doing well.

Lots to get into.

Also happy to have on Cian Tracy, who's actually joined us.

I did the stats earlier after all five of Leinster's Champions Cup defeats, as well as their one victory in the tenure of the podcast.

So Cian is our Champions Cup final guy.

So I'd like to have him back with us.

Cian, how are things?

Yeah, not too many positives.
