PIC: A couple of zeros in Leinster's attacking stats stand out

"I'd be disappointed with the way brand Leinster has shifted. I'd be disappointed that if you play against Toulon, they were in a position to do damage. Did Leinster exploit the opportunities that were handed to them and is that a policy culture that has drifted in over the last little while?

"I think there has been a shift away from a rugby game into a much more percentage oriented style of match and when those percentages start going against you, then you're not influencing and not being proactive."

Based on other percentages in the game, Leinster did not fair too badly in comparison to Toulon, but the two zeros above did stand out to us. Tune in from 7pm tonight for tonight's Off The Ball.
