[QUOTE="Leonormous Boozer, post: 1225640, member: 45598"] Not sure if that's entirely true, Leinster will be one of the top teams in this competition for a few more years yet, but this seems like a huge huge chance. Being the best isn't enough when trying to get past a huge mental block like this, you need to have a bit extra to account for nerves negatively affecting performance. A decent amount of mirroring with Rory McIlroy in this Leinster team. Rory was good last year, definitely a top 4 player in the world, without really being successful and didn't win anything of massive note (obviously Rory plays for more trophies so won a couple but not big ones). So far this year he's been the best by a distance and he played the best golf of anyone the last few days by a distance and only scraped by because nerves made him play some of the worst golf too. Don't think the same pressure is on Leinster but if we make the final this year it will be tense as anything. Cardiff for the final and inspiration from 2011 could help massively too. Toulouse and Bordeaux can raise their games also. Not taking anything for granted. [/QUOTE]
