Ulster v Munster

[CIMANFOREVER]

Wilson going ok albeit against a similarly callow Munster front row. Our set pieces are keek. Missing Marshall or Hume etc in midfield and Billy's lateral hospital passes are killing us

Kudos Scott Wilson. Took the hit, kept straight and turned the screw.

Get in!

Honestly can’t remember the last time I saw a young Ulster born prop come on and absolutely batter the scrum like Scott Wilson did tonight.

Great win. We actually held on to win while under pressure . . . . let that sink in folks!

Frank Murphy, jaysus. I'm not normally one for ref slander but jaysus.

Our first team forwards plus Wilson won it in the end. Hendo, Herring, Ewers all made a big differences when they came on.

Liam Coombes being touted as the next big thing in Irish Rugby. On tonight's performance he couldnt lace Dave McCann boots.

They did. This was a great win.

However, and not wanting to sound negative, we made the end far harder than it should have been. We shouldn't have needed a balls to the wall defensive effort to see that game out, the last few minutes should have been spent in the middle of the field as Munster just crash into a well set Ulster line.

We won't get away with this against better teams. So great win, but a load of improvement needed also.

Stu's ruck penalty toward the end. . . . Thought that was classic Ulster throwing the game away. Under no pressure, slow ball, Munster going nowhere, he gift wraps them a 5 yard line out with a piece of idiotic play, for which he has form for.

Expect better from him as one of our leaders. Hope he buys the pack a round of pints tonight for bailing him out.

Correct TC. We have some very good individual players, but there is a collective failure constantly at the key moments, constant underperformance, and many players not in form, leaving injuries aside. We lack ruthlessness. We were much stronger individually on paper, but regardless of their selection, every Munster team has a collective never beaten ethos lacking in UR. It has been for a long time, and that blame lies with the management team.

Set pieces a shambles also. Stewart is a great prospect but needs to sort his throwing otherwise he will fall short of international standard.
Take a bow Scott but perspective- that was a weak Munster front row, but he'll take the experience. And get in the gym!

Totally agree, would have been a lot easier if we were disciplined and kept it simple.

Stockdale seems to have got his mojo back. Bobby remains frustratingly anonymous. Hope McElroy is ok

Great win for Zebre btw. Sharks are gash atm

Stewart is an inexperienced captain. He will get there. Fair play to Ryan Wilson. A folk hero in the making with that hairstyle.

Munster front row only missing Kilcoyne though. That starting front row is probably their first choice and Archer 2nd choice tighthead, Buckley is reserve hooker.
