Simon Hick, Trimble SC’s Leinster analysis wtf

WTF Simon. Trimble.

Leinster need to get rid of Cullen asap. If it happened 5 years ago that might have been a soccer style reaction, but after year on year of failure it’s just logical/ cop on to get rid of him now.

Trimble wtf were you on about also?? You WERE my fav rugby commentator now you are just another clueless Cullen buddy.

Cullen had ZERO coaching experience and was given the keys of a Ferrari. That was a disgraceful decision by the IRFU in the first place. Until Lancaster came on board Leinster were going backwards under Cullen. Lancaster should have been given full responsibility there and then.

Cullen has practically the Irish squad to select from. My granny could get that Leinster squad to a EC semi or final and a URC final. They have 3 important games a year and Cullen fcuks it up every year. Case in point, Frowley brought in at ht as out half in the final, despite Cullen not have selected him for over a year at 10. What sort of prep/ coaching is that??

Culturally Cullen has ruined Leinster. They were always renowned for attacking organised rugby. Now they are just some sort of horrible defensive hybrid. They don’t even lose gracefully.

If I am Ringrose. Furlong, Conan, JGP, Lowe, Henshaw, Porter, Keenan, Ryan, Sheehan etc I am disgusted that his clown has been my head coach for the best years of my career.

Get this absolute spoofer out of Leinster immediately and get in a legitimate, proven coach (Scott Robertson, Franco Smith, McNamara, ANYBODY!) and guarantee Leinster will win a EC before some of these guys retire ie. in the next two years.

I think it's a case of too much success for Leinster (I'm counting teaching the finals as some form of success). Toulouse have won the trophy twice in the last ten years compared to Leinsters one win. A difference of one trophy but no one is saying Ugo Mola is a fraud.

It admittedly might be time for Cullen to move on but some of the vitriol is pure over the top comedy. It seems like your either the best coach or an absolute charlatan who has single handidly destroyed the club
