[QUOTE="Leonormous Boozer, post: 852275, member: 45598"] That was tougher to take than Clermont, complete and utter capitulation from top to bottom, Ringrose excluded, and we went out at home without a fight. My biggest criticism is of Cullen, he got so much wrong, not starting Leavy and having Kirchner on the bench were two stupid calls, bringing Ross Byrne to the bench and not using him over Sexton who was clearly injured was incredibly costly especially in a game where accurate kicking in the second half would have seen Scarlets 14 men crumble with a bad lineout and Sexton's calf rendered him useless. Adam Byrne showed why he's not in the Ireland squad, ROL would not have made that schoolboy error for the first try. We desperately need one of our hookers to learn to throw a ball. Without Heaslip or Murphy we are very vulnerable to turnovers. Sexton had his bad game of the season. Centres were good when given the chance. Carbery needs to fine tune his game at 15 a little bit. Don't ask Fetish to play a box kicking game, he can't. Use Ross Byrne he started in a 45-9 win over Scarlets (2nd string but still) a matter of months ago and could and has wreaked havoc against sides with 14 men. Scarlets scored three great tries and defended very well and credit to them, Leinster really ****** it away though in what feels like a very pre-Michael Cheika "all sizzle, no steak" season. Step up Munster, keep this thing in Ireland. [/QUOTE]
