The Leinster head coach was speaking after his side’s victory over Edinburgh.
HE MAY HAVE seen his side recording their second consecutive win at the RDS on Saturday, but Leo Cullen has admitted Leinster are proving to be “a little up and down” in the early weeks of the new United Rugby Championship season.
Yet with Connor Boyle and Boan Venter adding to an earlier five-pointer from fellow replacement James Lang, Edinburgh were just nine points adrift by the end of the contest. “From the depth point of view, at least there are some guys within that who are putting their hands up for bigger games down the line. The big thing is trying to win the games and trying to accumulate points really. We managed to do that, so that’s pleasing.
“Some of that Irish crew came back and trained last week. They had two weeks off and I suppose they’re into their third week and they’re scratching themselves thinking ‘what do I do!?’ Some of them I’ve literally seen in the dressing room for the first time. Again, they’re making their way back now,” Cullen added.
