Macken says opposition teams will now be expecting Larmour to run the ball from anywhere, for Stockdale to wrap around from right to left wings and will have spotted most of their attacking and defensives tells already. The Wasps centre commented:
"I remember when I first got into Leinster, I liked to go at guys on the outside. I did it a couple of times and had a bit of success; it was kind of my go-to. "It was actually Fergus McFadden who was defending against me [in training] and I got the ball. I had a go on that outside arc and he was there waiting. He absolutely ended me because he knew it was coming.""He's definitely that guy, during the week, his name will be up there on the analysis board as Leinster's biggest threat," Macken added, "His feet, his pace, so the opposition will be waiting for him and that will be a real test for him then." Larmour, Stockdale and Carbery will be high up on those boards now and they should take a lesson from that thumping training ground tackle, copped by Macken. The hard work has only begun. Former Ulster and All Blacks prop John Afoa was also interviewed while Andy McGeady and Pat McCarry were joined by Macken to preview all the Champions Cup action.
