🇮🇪 Los 400 km que separan Dublín de Birmingham no han sido obstáculo para que la ciudad inglesa se llene de aficionados irlandeses
😅 Apoyaban a su compatriota Marc English, medalla de oro en los 800 metros
Hasta Attaoui reconoció no haber vivido algo similar y solo le quedó reirse

@Ringo26 From the other angle you can clearly see Evans mouth that the Aviva toilet facilities "could be better".
Are the Leinster player supposed to let that kind of provocation go unanswered?
In 2026?
@haribaldijones Some highpoints for sure.
But overall 24/25/26, hard to argue that Leinster's defence is better than it was.
His comments suggest the coaching group are not functioning that well as a unit.
Would be too easy to say there is a lack of a dominant voice.
So, I'll go with that!
@haribaldijones All his fault? By no means.
Many factors. Cullen squad management. General decline. Evolution of the game away from Leinster's traditional strengths.
But surely he has to take his share of the responsibility. And that share is non negligible.
Sometimes it doesn't work out.
@haribaldijones "Scapegoated" seems a bit much.
Possibly the biggest "signing" Leinster have ever made (player or coach)?
His system required substantial transformation, he said so himself.
It has not worked out, by just about every metric Leinster are doing worse now than when he arrived.
@haribaldijones Coaches tell us defence and attack have many interdependencies.
After 18 game bedding in, 2 yrs back, it was regularly commented Leinster ball in hand were much poorer, with defence no better.
Nienaber was supposed to be transformative at Leinster.
It looks like he has been.

A handful of those with no seat got on the plane. Luckily for me I was one of them.
Family groups were not so 'lucky'.
Law permits some overbooking to cover small statistical variation.
20 passengers with tickets & no seat seems an abuse.
Over 20 passengers checked in with a boarding pass for this @vueling flight WHO HAVE NO SEAT ON THE PLANE.
@vueling how can you justify denying customers who have paid for a ticket and checked in a seat on the plane?

@McInnispicks My rule of thumb is if just about any of us were put in front of a microphone / camera as often as a major sports star like him, and subject to random questions, we would come across as a dick at least 20% of the time. Even top, top humans like you and I Andrew!
@gallagherbren58 The bandwagon, to whatever extent it exists, doesn't pick the team.
AF does. He saw more potential upside in integrating Sam, I suspect, with next WC in mind.
That is his prerogative as coach.
He didn't know until he tried, now presumably he sees Jack as better trade-off.
@Ronan_Johnston1@jon_cardinelli Don't know if this is intended as a dig at us Irish :-)
Either way - it is, I think, more or less a reasonable analysis of the situation.
Recall Jacques at Munster before SA, implemented the same approach (his own words). Hard to argue to really worked there either.
