Cockerill has no fear of Leinster inside job

Former Leicester forwards Leo Cullen and Shane Jennings are plying their trades with the host outfit yet Cockerill maintains there is nothing secret about the visitors’ style of play.

“We are a physical, confrontational, powerful team and we try to play like that every week. When we don’t, we struggle, and when we do you saw what could happen in the last 20 minutes against Cardiff,” said Cockerill, who will return to being the club number two when Argentina’s Marcelo Loffreda takes over fully after this week.
