Re: Connacht v Ulster Sat Oct 23rd 5:15pm KO

If there's criticism of AOC it's as stupid as his shoulder barge yesterday evening. That's an oxymoron. His shoulder barge was stupid, and my criticism of him was for being stupid to do it. How then is my criticism of him stupid? BTW, I do like him as a player and I do like that he gets stuck in, b...

Re: Connacht v Ulster Sat Oct 23rd 5:15pm KO

AOC was stupid and should know better. As a senior player he should have more control, but the red mist can descend with any of us. I don't think his play deserves the criticism he's getting. I criticised him for being dumb which resulted in him being yellow carded and a reversed penalty. It's not ...

Re: Connacht v Ulster Sat Oct 23rd 5:15pm KO

McIlroy at full-back will be an interesting one. Not really seen him defend too many high balls, nor kick, but I seem to recall reading elsewhere on here that he has played a lot there ? It's interesting that Lowry seems to be solely seen as a 10 this year. I thought he played well at 15 last year....

Re: PADDY JACKSON

It was tough going, watching Paddy bossing the line for LI and then Billy grimacing his way through another sloppy performance. Billy has some nice touches in terms of kicks and breaks, but game has too many holes. Defence, passing accuracy and control are all significant weaknesses at this level. I...

Re: Connacht v Ulster Sat Oct 23rd 5:15pm KO

A disorganised shambles, outplayed and outworked by a limited side with guts.
Several substandard starting players and plenty of guff coming off the bench. Not good enough Dan! Do you have any answers?

Re: Autumn International squad

Just listened to The Left Wing podcast and lengthy discussion on Irelands problem position……outhalf. Amazed but not surprised that there was absolutely no mention of the elephant in the room who plays at London Irish. So much for their punditry and knowledge of the game. Fear of a backlash and care...

Re: Connacht v Ulster Sat Oct 23rd 5:15pm KO

McCloskey will be vital, but the big thing will be the ability of Rea and McCann to boss the breakdown. I expect it to be intense.

Re: Connacht v Ulster Sat Oct 23rd 5:15pm KO

Connacht are in desperation territory and will see this as a must win game. We haven't really had to fire a shot yet and unless we get the attitude right we could get smashed. Could really to with stu, Jacob and baloucoune back and hendo would be a nice surprise. This is true, Expect a full out arm...

Who in their right mind would expect 30k for Connacht vs Ulster in Leinster?

Re: Ulster v Emirates Lions Friday October 15th 7:35pm KO

Defence is fairly solid. I'd prefer us to be more patient in attack instead of trying to force it.
