And I don't think that's just down to like some sort of media narrative.

What about to you about the back and forth?

There was some very self-serving aspects to his answer too.

You touched on how he characterized the Leinster-Bordeaux game when he kind of was like the defense.

Now, it wasn't the defense's fault.

Nothing to do with the defense.

He was like, oh, we had lots of opportunities in attack.

Didn't take them.

No mention of like...

the three butch kickoffs in the first half or the discipline in the first half that contributed to it.

I just felt like it wasn't really addressed.

It didn't address a lot of issues in that performance.

That was another aspect of the answer that I found interesting.

His characterization of his role as the head of the rugby program and what he does and doesn't do.

And again, begs the question of what Leo Cullen's ultimate job actually is in the program.

We kind of say, oh, he's like a director of rugby, but he's actually not.

His title is head coach.

Like...

In the description of what Nean Amber does as head of rugby, he mentioned Robin McBride and Tyler Blayndell.

He didn't mention Leo and what input Leo has into the game plan on the Sunday when they meet on the Sunday and review and preview and decide on what they're going to do and the allocation of training time.
