NEVER MOVE ON. Years on, I cannot ever watch Ireland with anything but indifference, I continue to wish for the imminent death of Donal Spring, the FIRFUC's executioner of Wee Paddy & Wee Stu, and I hate the FIRFUCs with undiminished passion.

Re: HC Again - Treviso vs Ulster
Anyway the only change I can possibly see is if Mr Wallace may be considered as a bench option. Other than that no good reason to change a thing.

Surely not in place of baby giraffe?
Re: HC Again - Treviso vs Ulster
If Wallace is fit, I think I'd have him on the bench on place of McIllwaine, not that the latter did anything wrong during his brief appearance last week, but Wallace would allow more direct replacement oportunities without reconfiguring the rest of the backs.BaggyTrousers wrote:Anyway the only change I can possibly see is if Mr Wallace may be considered as a bench option.

Re: HC Again - Treviso vs Ulster
In view of the interview given by Windy during the week, I'd like to see him off the pitch as soon as the game is won or lost. Last week it could have been after about 20 mins but he stayed on for 60.
So lets assume sense prevails and Mike Allen comes on after 20 mins because we've gone 20 up again, and Gilroy goes to FB. We'd be playing with two wings that can cover centres, and a centre on the bench.
I can't believe I'm convincing myself that McIlwaine should be on the bench!

TREVISO UPDATE - Very slight pink tinge on the white bits of our Onesies after their first wash
So be careful folks when washing them.

Re: HC Again - Treviso vs Ulster
Back to an earlier debate at this stage is that we don`t have to go for the bonus point.
Leinster last year in their group went all out for the bonus point against Exeter as they knew that they had to as their only chance of getting out of their group.
As did Munster against against Racing so they set their stalls out early as they had no alternative.
I didn`t feel we were in a position to chase the tbp away to a weak Castres as RP was poor at 10 and Rory could not hit a barn door to get a lineout platform.
That cost us a home qf which led to our exit so I can understand the logic to go after the bp from the off.
However the bonus point at this stage is a nice to have but not a need to have.
The tigers still have to get a result in France.
I hope Montpellier will not do that French thing and just write the competition off when things dont go their way in the early stages.
Consolidate the win then see what happens if its on.
We dont have to chase anyone or anything at this stage.

You boys have had yours for a right while haven't you? They miust have walked to the machine on their own Wonder if Shammy has washed hers yet?
Curious because I've got Jnr wan for Xmas.

Re: HC Again - Treviso vs Ulster
had only been worn few times and one wash and they've gone pale shade of pink. So pale didnt even realize until looking them out for Treviso. Tried using Dr Beckmann colour run remover but to no avail.big mervyn wrote:Did yous use a colour catcher?HwoodMike2umate wrote:TREVISO UPDATE - Very slight pink tinge on the white bits of our Onesies after their first wash

Dr Beckmann's colour and dirt collector was probably the one to use. Benefits of hindsight an' all.

Re: HC Again - Treviso vs Ulster
listen guys, I'm as guilty as the next man and more often than most for taking a subject OFF TOPIC , but are we REALLY discussing how to wash big BabyGros here two days before a Heineken Cup match?
I'm not arguing -
I'm just explaining why I'm right
