As Leinster search for consistency this season, head coach Matt O'Connor has often cited accuracy as an issue to iron out.

But what does he really mean by that?

It was a question put to Bernard Jackman and Trevor Hogan on Off The Ball tonight.

"Accuracy has been floating around for two or three seasons, possibly since Joe Schmidt hammered it down," said Trevor, who added that it can apply from anything from passing to the breakdown - the latter being the big issue for Leinster according to Trevor.

"It's convenient to throw out there but it's probably a true reflection of what [Leinster]'s missing."  

Bernard also picked out "mapping" as an issue that Leinster will need to iron out. 

The lads also spoke about impressive weekend performances for Leinster's Ian Madigan and Munster's JJ Hanrahan and how close they are coming to nailing down a regular spot at 10 for their respective teams.
