Leinster's senior coach Jacques Nienaber is delighted that there is that transparency between him and the players as he explains his need to understand their mindset
Last weekend, new Leinster captain Caelan Doris played an active role in the coaches box alongside Nienaber and Leo Cullen .
"Obviously we’re not playing the game. We don’t see it the way they see it. So this is a suggestion and then it’s up to them to take it or don’t take it. Nienaber was approached by EPCR officials when he came down to the sideline for the second half of last season's Champions Cup final loss to Toulouse.
"Standing there in a huddle, you can see are they blowing? Are there solutions, are there emotions? So you can get an emotional connection. When you see in the box, there's not an emotional connection and it's ‘are they confident, are they frustrated, are they angry?’
