Anybody with an hour or two to spare care to put together a list of how many players from each Pro14 team will be going to Japan? Any team with fewer than Ulster's three?
Who cares?
Just for fun on a quiet Sunday afternoon, a slow period at work or to fill the long days of retirement.

Munster 12
Ulster 3
Connacht 2
Glasgow 12
Edinburgh 10
Ospreys 7
Scarlets 12

Dragons have more than us... that's depressing.

Does Rory Best still count for Ulster?

That probably depends on how technical one wishes to be. I still count him for Ulster.

The Italians must have more than three each.
I'll look on the bright side, it might get us a few more wins before they all come home.

Looks like Henshaw could be out of the RWC with a hamstring injury and Addison maybe called up to replace him.

Given that he isn't in the 2019/20 Ulster squad, in this context (i.e, players at the RWC and their impact, or lack of, on the Pro 14) , you can't really count him.

Best could be defined as a “ to be former Ulster “ in so far as once the WRC ends so does his contract with Ulster

On that basis, Ulster are massive over achievers. Maybe the fans expect too much?

We probably do punch above our weight. Happy days, long may it continue. Then when things go badly, we have something to gurn about. What's not to like?

I see that Rob Howley has been sent home in relation to an investigation into breaches of gambling guidelines.
