Who was your MOTM for ULSTER vs Leicester Tigers?

Post by **fermain** » Sat Oct 18, 2014 11:19 pm

A messed up first half, a better 2nd, but some players need to hold their hands up, and admit to not being good enough.
Step aside the ref, poor calls throughout, but not a reason for blame, as we did ourselves no favours...

however, still some good periods of play, and we won the 2nd half...

So, who was your Man of the match????

Diack for captain!

I'd give it to Franco. He battled all game and that dummy for the try too showed great leadership. Maybe he has some responsibility for the lineout but it's hard to single anyone out.

Frank the van man

Can't give it to Franco because of the mess at the line-out.

Can't give it to anybody actually. We were really poor.

You could hear VanMan man yelling all the time he's a good boss at the base of a ruck, if only Dan had been fit they're a good match. Hard to choose a motm tbh but I'd give it to Franco.

Jared for me. couple of big tackles, some good breaks, and one of the architects of our best piece of rugby all night. looked decent at 13 and 15.

the player I think we missed most tonight was big Dan.

Jared for me as well. Some big tackles. A good line break, and created the overlap that led to the 1st try and then supported Bowe down the wing.

Personally I don't see how a collective performance like that deserves a MOTM from ulster, them getting excited abut Payne , go back, watch the game and look at his defensive positioning, one try is down to him being clueless as to where he is suppose to be, he pushes wide then when he realised he went to far and left a gap big enough for a bus to drive through he tried to correct but , alas to late , tigers saw it , try under the post 7 points , thanks.

Looks like we have a Payne is Great Brigade being formed .

McCloskey showed to all last night he is not this level, however feck me in a few years from now he will be awesome.

p= (lovely guy)but him and heany are too alike and really are below par

Best, I am sure he is not happy with his performance .

PJ , bad day at the office and I feel maybe the wrong selection, sometimes you get it wrong and I think after ihumps performance last week he warranted the spot, but hey, who know .

Bowe and Gilroy, glimpses of their potential but just not firing on four cylinder

Warwick , done all that was expected

VdM , said my piece when he signed and will only get better,

Stevenson , hard honest grafter, nothing to get too excited, does what it says on the tin.

Henry, give all he had.

Diack

And finally, to be above the rest, you need fifteen strong decision makers all on the field together, that did not happen last night. Not the end of the world just yet, years ago we would have accepted a losing bonus point away , now we expect more as every one has higher expectations , not just the players but their supporters. So on to next week, a win is the target, a bonus point win will be a exactly that , a bonus, if we get it , feet on the ground, not European cup winners..........

Poite: as a ref I think he is okay , but really should be checked for Alzheimer's

Its rarely I'll say this in public.... But spot on Kofi. Reality check writ large.

Why was olding not used?????

If this selection experimenting keeps going not only will this season be over but next as well.
6 games up till now no one had a fecking clue who was going to be playing either side of him and boys adear it showed. A glorified version of the Ravens fiasco.

Why thank you CF, your endorsement has warmed my cockles. Olding , best player in Ulster and needs to be put on the park from KO.
