Montpellier v Ulster, Sunday April 7 12:30pm KO (UK Time), Viaplay Sports

[for dog and ulcer]

Giving away a penalty every other breakdown. Varying between idiotic and just awful.

We have no real 7, they have. Body language is appalling.
Rea is a waste of a shirt. We seem aimless, clueless and disorganised.

Edit: add passive, but not passive aggressive

But apart from that are Ulster playing well?

[John_e_boy]

Well we can write off this season. Back to Belfast, lick our wounds and any skeletons left in any closets need to be ejected. Build for the next few years.

[Dave]

One team wants to play at least. Even the forwards are kicking it away.

[Dave]

That's better. Fcuking run at them!

[John_e_boy]

Ben Whitehouse seeing forward actions that nobody else has seen, even the French commentators!

Thankfully the TMO kept schtum so try stands for Addison.

[CIMANFOREVER]

Nice try, but has RB lost some pace? Expected him to burn that.wrong hand too.

[Deraless]

We needed to come out and get a good start against a second string team and silence the "crowd". Instead it sounds like we've just created a wee party atmosphere.

[John_e_boy]

Our ruck, Montpellier player laying over the ball, Cooney can't get his hands on it, what does Ben Whitehouse do?

Play on, Montpellier steal our ball with an offside man the whole time. He shoul be called TomKitehouse...

[SparkyClarky]

If Matty Rea arrives on the pitch after the break it proves two things Ewers is really broke and Richie isn’t the man for the job either!

Yep. Hamstring issues do that unfortunately.

Eg Michael Owen and, somewhat less famously, Irish international Sean Maguire at PNE.

[CIMANFOREVER]

We are shockingly passive- poor ruck protection for a turnover on counter ruck. Appalling skill set.
Really sooner Newby and Grant are also gone the better. This is schoolboy basics.

Agreed- either prone or protecting it. Didn't really open up and looks awkward.

Whitehouse is unlikeable btw

[justinr73]

That bloke in the crowd had a good head of hair.

[jean valjean]

Ball protection once again lacking. Rea is a waste of a Jersey. Is he playing for peanuts as he has no intention of ever leaving ulster unless shown the door.

Why Ewers and not Sheridan?
