Head coach Filo Tiatia emphasized the challenge ahead and praised the depth Leinster brings into every match. 

“Leinster have a good coaching group and a very good squad that they can rely on — with a lot of Ireland international players,” he said. “Whatever team they bring over, they will be very good. I am sure there will be good numbers at Rodney Parade to support us, and we know that Leinster are a very talented side. It’s a challenge we need to embrace.”

Leinster head coach Leo Cullen also highlighted his squad’s hunger and competition for places entering this block of games. 

“A lot of the lads are raring to go for the next block of games,” he said. “That’s what we want — guys that are hungry and wanting to play for Leinster and making sure they give everything of themselves every opportunity they get to put on a Leinster jersey, because it has to mean something.” 

He noted the excitement around the club’s younger players, adding that the squad always rallies around those making their debuts.
