Re: The run in

Not now after capitulating with the kids in SA. Surely URC should be looking at Teams sending deliberately weakened squads and undermining the competition. With the league so tight down to 11th every game has huge bearing on so many teams and potential revenue/ qualification for EPCR They will hope...

Re: Site Running Slow

Leinster forum suggesting their site was being scrapped for AI information, hence it running slow. Not sure if this is the case, the number of online users seems to be the give away. I'm getting intermittent access via tappytalk.

Re: Ulster v Benetton Fri Apr 26 7:35pm KO BBC2 NI / RTE2 / Premier Sports UK

Signs of some confidence returning where it is needed in the backs. You can see Murphys plan moving the ball starting to take effect with cooney running a bit more off quick rucks to hold in the defence. Despite addisons mistake I thought he did well at 13 and the body seems to be holding up. He has...

Addison to 13 for the rest of the year for me. Will allow us to put Marshall on the bench for leinster game for a nice sign off.

Re: The run in

Lack of bonus points this season taking its toll. Bulls, Lions, Connacht and Cardiff all at home were the kind of games where these are needed. The Edinburgh and ospreys losses were where we mesed up this year. If we had those 8 points, we'd be much more comfortable sitting in 5th position (but wit...

Re: The run in

Can't see us making top 8 now. Two wins would be the bare minimum but that is unlikely to happen or be enough. As said above, a run in the challenge Cup with a good seeding may be our best option. Benetton game is make or break now, they have been very good lately with a lot of players coming off a ...

Re: Ulster v Cardiff Friday April 19, 7:35pm - BBC2 NI / BBC2 Wales / TG4 / Premier Sports (UK) 2 / Premier Sports (Irel

Pound for pound lowry is a better tackler than stockdale but that doesn't mean that he doesn't lose out against bigger players, that's just physics. If Jacob hit as hard or with the same technique he would nail players, but he seems to prefer hurting people going forward as opposed to defence. To me...

Re: Ulster v Cardiff Friday April 19, 7:35pm - BBC2 NI / BBC2 Wales / TG4 / Premier Sports (UK) 2 / Premier Sports (Irel

As good as Izzys effort and endeavour was for the try saving tackle - it should have been a penalty try - you can't kick the ball out of someone's hands. Totally missed by officials, commentators and pundits I don't think it was a deliberate kick as he couldn't see where his feet were at the time. ...

Glad to get the win and who knows what a shot in the arm it will be for the team. Credit to Sheridan and mccann who both look like becoming stalwarts of this side for the next 10 years. Bar AOC and ewers that was a fairly inexperienced pack we had out and a backline with more years ahead than behind...
