Ulster v Connacht

[Dave]

No complaints from me here considering who is fit. McCann is such a worker I'm sure he won't repeat the Baird non tackle. Sheridan provides good impact. Stewart and Carter to come on if the lineout misfires.

[So It Is]

Just want to say that if the result, whatever it is, is put down to the referees, or TMO's performance, then we've lost. We need to win, period, regardless of refs, cards, weather, time of the month for the backs, or whether Greg Jones is fit, we must be better than that!

GJ will have McCann prepared to bring the fires of hell to the Connacht pack after collecting his laundry and doing a grocery shop at M&S for him

Sheridan ain't anywhere to be seen.

What was I looking at? Jordi Murphy!? Connacht by 10.

Hoping Dan is relying on the experience of jordi and gilroy in a tight game and not 'they deserve a send off in the Jersey'...

Gilly's done alright in the last 2 games.

Strange how we're always prepared for the worst when we play the Westies yet always manage to convince ourselves that we have a chance when we play Leinster.

Does anyone want a bottle of fine wine? Junior still in the Caribbean and the fall back lift home not available. Me mate ( Frank, his first game this season) and I can get to the game but we need to get back to Old Holywood Road/Knocknagoney (drop off at Tescos is fine) so if anyone has room for two and wants a bottle of wine send me a message. Slainte.

[Bobbievee]

I would have helped but unfortunately have just booked an emergency root canal with the Dentist. Sorry.
Or you could get a taxi?

[Bobbievee]

Would transporting any flegs or fridge freezers be part of this deal?I
And how "fine" is "fine wine"?

[HwoodMike2umate]

2 flegs on 5 foot poles would need to be included. But no fridge freezer.

I heard his wine is sh1te. Just like Trevor Brennan's Guinness allegedly

The wine will be fine as long as you borrow Mike’s Clubcard when you drop him off.

Think of all the points he’s accumulated on Special Brew and Bucky…

Guessing the "fine" wine is a £5 bottle of Californian wine

The battle of the front rows will be fierce- Herring shades it UR.

[allezlesverres]

It's going to be a night for the forwards and whilst the front rows look even enough, we have a clear advantage in the second and back rows. From the connacht backline the only players I'd swap are carty and hansen and even then the latter would be harsh on baloucoune.

Should be a comfortable ulster win. Would be nice to see some ruthlessness for a change and just put them away in the first 20 mins.

Big stu will make a massive difference to the backs.
