Going to be optimistic and say any injury he has a niggle and he is being rested just in case. I think "Money" Bill was probably scheduled to start the Zebre game.

I couldn’t name a potential Ulster born pack that could stand a chance in a professional game. But yes at least one would be a nod.

The system can produce a decent backline, so much so the FIRFU thought we had too big for our boots and got rid of 2, but rarely any more than a token forward every once in a while.

Is it worth it? Injuries, especially concussion with long term health risks, a short career with below average pay for pro sports. Overlooked for Ireland or scapegoat fodder when you do play. Oh and you might get shafted even when innocent.

Great to have two strong teams out, as opposed to what usually happens over Xmas. Will be very interesting to show our progress under McFarland!

Those two were got rid of because they brought disgrace to Ulster Rugby, not because of some bizarre plot to keep Ulster down.

Exactly right. Same disgrace that Murray brought to the irfu with Zebo, and look how Murray was exiled...

Its a disgrace -- to be innocent

Its a disgrace to wind your mates up with private text messages

most of the posters who "INPUT" to this forum are a disgrace

Grow up --If looks like --smells like -- don't eat it
Within this carapace of skepticism there lives an optimist

A friendly welcome and a decent breakfast at Number Three in Limerick.

Now at the hotel.

For a number two.

No. Because their words online at the time broke a law higher than the law that found them NOT guilty; the Laws of the Fembot Twittersphere.

The biggest pack of hypocritical Warren Gatland on the planet.

How bad is Ulsters performance tonight that were still discussing PJ and SO on a match day thread. So many errors tonight, it must be so demoralising for the coaching staff. I know I am.

Defence very hit and miss, sometimes great other times awful.
