The Leinster head coach says he hopes to have more Ireland players back in the squad following the World Cup.
LEO CULLEN HAD plenty of reasons to be singing in the rain at Rodney Parade after watching his young side pick up the full five points from a 33-10 away win that moved his Leinster team up to second in the URC table.
“We got the early lineout drive try, which helped settle things down and then the two tries either side of half-time were crucial,” said Cullen. Advertisement The win contained tries from Sheehan and Tom Clarkson in the first half and then Ciaran Frawley, Charlie Ngatai and Scott Penny after the break. Ryan Bryne converted four of them.
“We were very frustrated not to get anything from that first game after creating so many chances, but this weekend has shown again that everyone is getting better in this league,” added Cullen.
