@du_vlok @patmccarry @LekkerRugbyPod Two years ago Ireland got our all time record away win against France, Leinster still lost in the Champions Cup. Last year, Leinster conceded the most points they ever have in a home game in the Champions Cup (37 to Northampton), going back over 30 years + over 100 home matches.

@patmccarry @LekkerRugbyPod They got to the final, what more does the Irish want, France completely outplayed them in the 6N

Leo and Jacques are likely to stay on, together, until 2027 but winning back-to-back URC titles is now a must, must, MUST - that's just how it is 🔵 Felt better at the end of this chat with the @LekkerRugbyPod crew, in South Africa 🇿🇦🎙️ youtu.be/4PzX3rg5vio?si…

@nathanrjohns It was the most points Leinster have conceded in 31 years of European knockout rugby, not just the last 3 years. The previous most points also came under Nienaber, against Northampton last year.

By conceding 41 points, Leinster's defence had its worst knockout day since the arrival of Nienaber With input from those tasked with unlocking the blitz, a look at how the system failed this time Analysis from Bilbao ⬇️ irishtimes.com/sport/rugby/20…

@denisyurchak Your pinned tweet says you make 15k per month, you can afford to pay for a hotel in Amsterdam. No one is forcing you to go.

Planning an Amsterdam trip with gf Airbnbs are mostly banned so you get subpar and expensive hotels (min 200€ per night for 2 stars, and under 20 variants left for the whole city at this price) The Netherlands has an extremely high airport tax, so no low-costers as well Flight prices from other cities in Europe start at 300€ So a weekend trip now costs 500€ min Thanks to leftist policies, you need to be a millionaire in Europe to afford life here

@dcron911 He calls for Cullen to go in the article.

And the Leo Cullen (head coach) experiment is a roaring success right pal? 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

@AndrewW60292775 @ChalynRugby ???

@ChalynRugby Racist Irish blaming a New Zealander but the Irish rugby team starts with 5 NZ players in their team.

He won’t make another all blacks squad. I mean he shouldn’t.

@Brendennel The media in Ireland is blaming Cullen just as much if not more. They are both responsible.

Cue the blame Jacques Nienaber headlines.

@Slipcatch Our attack coach should also go. But in 30 years of knockout rugby, Leinster have never conceded 40 points before yesterday.

Leinster 12x 22m Entries, to finish at 1.58 Pts/Entry I have this same type of shit with my beloved Stormers. But at the Stormers we don't blame the DEFENSE COACH!!

@DougProp @RugbyTigers What we have learned is the Rassie Erasmus is clearly the brains of South African rugby, because Leinster's defense has gotten notably worse since Nienaber joined. That was the most points Leinster have ever conceded in knockout rugby.

@RugbyTigers I get losing a final as a fan is gutting, but sometimes you just play a far better side, and despite your best efforts get beat. That's what happened today. Some of what the Leinster fans are saying smacks of entitlement. They have a RWC winning coach in their set up FFS.

Leinster fans have not taken it well going by the replies

@Slipcatch 🤞

We love you Jacque, come home!!

@Slipcatch It was on Cullen at 26-7 and 33-7. There is no conspiracy here.

Cameras on Jacque Nienaber at 7-14 At 7-0 it was on Leo Cullen. 🤣🤣🤣

@allTxs Amazing that someone could find a reason to criticise Farrell today of all days. We were outclassed, but the same players look much better when playing for Farrell.

Frawley is the best out-half in Leinster and always has been since Sextons retirement. Both him and Crowley suffered from Farrells inability to coach change and wanting to replicate Sexton in his system. Glad to see both have come out the other side even better imo #LEIvUBB

@luvukonombembe I still struggle to understand the outrage with this quote. The Champions Cup is the pinacle, it's normal that the players want to win it above anything else.

How many years does Porter have left to get that 5th star? #LEIvUBB

@sarky_snake @RugbyTigers A quote that only exists in your head.

@RugbyTigers The entitlement of Leinster fans is enormous. "The whole of Irish rugby is dedicated to making us successful even at the expense of other regions, we absolutely DESERVE the trophy". They were good. Would have beaten many lesser teams today, but UBB played a blinder.

@RugbyTigers We were utterly outplayed, no doubt about it. But my god we are fed up with the coaches, they have to go.

@jim_demps Tough days for Ulster and Leinster, no doubt. It'd be tougher going 18 years without making a European final, though.

Any history buffs in? Trying to think of another example where there were two massacres on the same site in a 24 hour period?

@Rugby_Scoop Irish pundits and media have been blaming Cullen more than Nienaber. But the reality is they both should take responsibility.

Real truth is, Leo Cullen is like Todd Blackadder when he was Crusaders coach back in the days. Has the money and the players but can’t get this team over the line. Irish pundits can blame Jacques Nienaber all they was but Leo is the man at the helm and he hasn’t delivered

@leinsterrugby @bankofireland It's time we reflect on what isn't working, and the reality is, we need new coaches.

When you work so hard all season, days like this cut deep. Thank you for your incredible support through the highs and lows.

@FinMorrison They lost to Toulon, who lost to Leinster. They would have been embarrassed today.

There's no point dwelling on it, but I do wonder if Glasgow would've melted away in these conditions against this good a side. I was 95% sure they'd be playing in the final today... 🥵😥🫠 #UBBvLEI

Cullen out, Nienaber out.

@ChrisSru880101 Enjoy the spanking. You'll never see a Scottish side be spanked in a final, because they'll never make the final.

Leinster getting spanked is always great to watch, But Low-key making this final super boring to watch, game is already over. Despite the brilliance from UBB we are watching
