O’Driscoll admitted after Leinster’s win over Irish rivals Ulster that they set themselves a target of becoming one of the greatest sides in European history after they won their first title against Leicester in Edinburgh in 2009.
“It will take a couple of days for it to properly to settle in but after we won one we talked about not being content with that and trying to create some sort of dynasty and something to be remembered by,” he said.
“We’re going in the right direction towards doing that but I know this team will be hungry for more .
“That’s why it’s enjoyable, You’re going in day-in and day-out because you know you’re going to be pushed by the guy next to you. We played for one another out there and that really showed today.
“The energy from all 23 was phenomenal, it shows where we are as a squad. I only came in for the knockout stages. For the important part, but the hard graft was put in during the group stages,” he added on Sky Sports.
