White’s charges have followed the playoff rugby rule book well, sticking to what they have done best this season and tweaking a few things as they did with their kicking tactic against Leinster.has been how they have closed games, being intact when under pressure and when calls have not gone their way.White wants his players to show the character they displayed under pressure in the knockout stages once again in the final.
“For two weeks in a row now, we have had to defend our try line to win in both games, those are the margins you’re going to find in these games,” White said. “There are going to be those moments in the game, and when you get those moments week after week, that’s when you know your team is growing. Benetton on our line could have scored, and we got out. Last weekend we defended 20 phases and Nizaam kicked the ball down the field.“You need to reinforce that it’s been done, you can do it, and you might need to do it again, and that’s the way you’re going to win.
