The notion that Jacques Nienaber, a two-time World Cup-winning coach and a potential candidate for a third title with a rumored return to the Springboks, was the sole issue, is frankly laughable.

There are serious consequences that must be faced for Leinster’s sustained lack of success. Coach Leo Cullen, whose decisions have been questioned, has, in the opinion of many, escaped accountability too lightly. A significant change is clearly needed.

English Translation:

SHANE McGRATH: There have to be consequences for persistent Leinster failure and deluded Cullen has gotten off far too lightly… there needs to be a change

The contention that Jacques Nienaber was the problem, a two-time World Cup winner and a man who could well be involved in a bid for a third with a mooted return to the Springboks, is risible. There have to be consequences for persistent Leinster failure and deluded Cullen has gotten off far too lightly… there needs to be a change.
