The UAFC

Glasgow...Wow

14-8 and the Lions got a red card, now 36-14 Lions.

Bulls 56-35 Benetton FT, just the 14 tries.

Bulls 48-28 Benetton, 13 minutes to go.

Both sides have 4 try BPs.

Bulls 31-14 Benetton HT.

Should be game over, 2 tries for the Italians. A LBP would see them stay in 8th.

Both probably and it is a Saturday night game.

We might be ok at lock, if injuries are reasonably kind but OH is a really big worry.

Anybody know why BB is heading to Munster?

Guessing £££.

Some rather debatable decisions in that game. Very partisan home support in that they booed Munster on to the pitch which is unpleasant and unnecessary. Result was in doubt the whole way. A pity about Edinburgh getting a bonus point. I'm not optimistic about Ulster's prospects of finishing 7th or 8...

Benetton hosting Edinburgh in Round 18 is handy from an Ulster pov. Those two sides could be fighting for one spot to cover the Sharks winning the Challenge Cup.

I’m actually going to the euro finals next week, looking forward to it, great stadium too. Two quality clubs, great squads. That said genuinely not sure I can take the “off the ball” Leinster smugness…..absolute whallopers, the lot of them. Hopefully we’ll give a good account of ourselves Saturday,...

Grant and Bell have contracts through to Summer 2025, unsure about Soper and Newby.
