Cullen looking to finish Euro Cup on a high

The Irish province, who have lifted European silverware on four occasions, are already out of this year's Champions Cup after suffering four defeats from their four games so far.

Head coach Cullen admits he is "gutted" at how the campaign has panned out, but wants to see a response in their final games against Bath and Wasps.

"We are gutted with how Europe has gone for us so far," he said. 

"We have played four games and we have got very little out of them. All of those were games we felt if we had managed them differently we could have got an awful lot more out of them.

"That is not what we want but we have two games left and we want to put in some big performances. We have Bath at home at the RDS and we always want to perform well at home in front of our supporters, and then we finish against Wasps.

"We will manage the players and the bodies over this period but we certainly want to keep the show on the road because we have been on a decent run of late and we have two tough games to look forward to against sides that can still qualify and there is a lot at stake for individuals with Six Nations squad selection coming up."
