Kiss influence still showing. I think he selected those 3. Long John Silver would have been closer.

Next match is a roll over week featuring Dougie Bader, Christy Brown and the obligatory Saffer Oscar Pistorius.

Don't laugh. I once lost a game of pool to a girl with one arm

There's an awful lot of elbow room at Ravenhill these days.
A vision of things to come Merv.

Anyone else think that Treviso have an outside chance of claiming fourth spot? Their remaining matches are;
Home: Connacht, Dragons, Zebre
Away: Dragons, Cardiff, Kings, Leinster
Dragons (home), Kings and Zebre are all after the 6 nations and Treviso would be favourites. The others, except Leinster, should be close.
With Ulster being 12 points clear I think we'll need to get a win at home to Ospreys and currently I wouldn't back us to win. I think it's going to be tight at the end of the season, anyone agree or am I being overly pessimistic?

If anything sums up our season it's sitting on a dreich Sun afternoon with fingers crossed that Dragons beat Treviso.

Treviso won 18-15. 5th straight win. 8 points behind Ulster & Edinburgh.
Looking at their remaining games - reckon they could win 4 of them.

Glasgow look like they could be home and hosed for a semifinal by the time they face Edinburgh again.

Looks like it. It’s 1-1 in the 1872 Cup series so the 3rd game is the decider.
