Outhalf has put in the hard yards with Leinster to eke out opportunities at international level
“No, it was brilliant to get the bonus point, which was very important. And I suppose to experience the atmosphere as well in Cardiff for 10 or 12 minutes, or whatever it was. To steer the team home for the bonus point, yeah it was brilliant.”“November was very different, pretty last minute you could say, whereas to be in from the start now, get full preparation and see how the whole environment works and know the plan inside out, that’s been brilliant.
“The coaches I’ve had over the last number of years at Leinster have been great to me. It’s a combination of both. Being patient, which isn’t always easy to do, but I just have to wait for my chance and when I get it hopefully take it.” “As generic as it sounds, there was no point in me worrying about anyone else. I could just worry about myself.”
“Obviously that game [in 2021], there was no crowd which was obviously a strange time for everyone. I think the support we had in Wales was incredible. After the game, you saw the number of people that travelled. Hopefully this week it will be buzzing and will make a big difference.“I think the attack is phenomenal. It’s up there with the best in world rugby. I think we probably saw that at times [last Saturday] particularly at the start of the game.
