The way ulster teams have performed over the past 6 weeks, we’ll be lucky if this won’t be a 30 pt victory.

Game being streamed anywhere ?
From the rolling glens of Antrim through the hills of Donegal we will stand and shout for Ulster as we win both scrum and maul from the lovely lakes of Fermanagh tae the shores of ould Lough Gall we will scream and shout for Ulster as we beat them one and all!

Only one out half? I realise that others can play there, so why not have two or more named. It seems to give the impression that we're not sure what the way forward is at out half. With Ian Madigan leaving, we look really, really light at 10.

Billy Burns is phenomenal, best rugby brain Dan has ever seen. I wouldn't want another outhalf named in the squad as it would just destroy their confidence seeing the great one destroy all around him.

That's a little Weird.
Just being pedantic.
The "i" before "e" in the English language is not a strong rule.

Dave McCann scores a try to make it 7-5. SHANAHASN makes the kick to make it 7-7.

WTF is going on that wee Dave is taking the kicks?

Doak, Lowry, Burns and Addison have all goalkicked for ulster.

Not even a mention of this game on the Ulster Rugby Website. Did they even announce a team?

Pathetic stuff. Amateurs from top to bottom
