Re: 6 Nations 2024
Given recent form, quite generous odds for the away teams on Saturday.
Italy 5/2
Scotland 15/2
England 12/5
Italy 5/2
Scotland 15/2

Re: 6 Nations 2024
I can't see one of those away sides winning and it's not England or Italy....................................
Re: 6 Nations 2024

Re: 6 Nations 2024
It was Hendo's fault.

Re: 6 Nations 2024
Of the three second rows last week Henderson was the one or sorted out the line out but did get blown twice -- once from a weak pass from Murray and the second was a 'homer" decision.
In my Opinion Henderson fails the age test will he be there at the next world cup -- I wouldn't bet on it .
Will all three of those picked for Saturday be at the next World Cup tbh I wouldn't bet on it !!!

Re: 6 Nations 2024
It is fairly obvious that Henderson has been designated as the official 'scapegoat' for the English defeat. If Ryan was fit, unbelievably Henderson would have been fifth choice for Ireland.rumncoke wrote: ↑Fri Mar 15, 2024 1:19 am Of the three second rows last week Henderson was the one or sorted out the line out but did get blown twice -- once from a weak pass from Murray and the second was a 'homer" decision.

Re: 6 Nations 2024
I think McCloskey has more reason to feel aggrieved than Hendy, given that Farrell has decided on a 5/3 split. It was bound to be between Hendy and Baird, and at 24, Baird is the future. Stu, on the other hand, has been passed over for Ringrose despite having shone in his last appearance, and even though there must be a question about Ringrose's match fitness/ sharpness.

Re: 6 Nations 2024
Thanks Justin. What a depressing read. It should be posted on the wall in the Home changing rooms.
We have no money, no international players and no hope,
Is there no end to the humiliation of Ulster Rugby.
I make it that 8 of those teams are below us in the URC table.
Re: 6 Nations 2024
Last week was the first time since the OPTA stats commenced in 2010 that Ireland didn’t try a grubber, a chip or a crossfield.
Seems odd, especially against a blitz defence.
Maybe Ireland actually lost by not kicking it away?
They should have picked Billy.

Re: 6 Nations 2024
Bit of a problem tomorrow. If all results go against us and we lose the 6 Nations championship. Who do we blame?
No Ulster players. So must be Aki or Bealham.
Can we blame our tacklebaggers?
