Massive point to prove by the group to the “external noise”. The aim has to be a bp win, a second half shut out, a solid MMless scrum, lower error count, more clinical attack.

It’s the Epiphany Bank Holiday on Friday.
Given Italy’s relatively high proportion of God botherers, do we know to what extent that may impact upon our likely programme of cultural activities?
ie will the Celtic pub be open?

Ulster can never be confident if EOS and Milo are coming on to shore up the scrum.
It’s time to see if Scott Wilson is an option. He looked decent at u20 level.

There is no way we'll get a BP win here, a LBP is more likely!
It's going to be a heavily rotated side that travels to this, I think numerous players are due a rest. Treviso are pretty good at home, certainly good enough to beat rotated Ulster.
Given the euro game the week after I'd bet Hendo, Cooney, McCloskey, Vermuelen etc will all be watching this one on TV from their sofas.

I’d rather they were watching the LR game on the tele!

Agree that the benetton game is much more important that the LR one. The away game in France is a free hit for some fringe players to show what they can do.

McCloskey and Henderson are due to sit out 1 more game in this stretch so either Treviso / La Rochelle / Sale. Vermeulen sat out Connacht and Cooney didn't play v Zebre or Sale. Shanahan is unavailable this weekend also (hammie).thecrouch wrote: ↑Wed Jan 04, 2023 3:36 pmThere is no way we'll get a BP win here, a LBP is more likely!

They rested McCann, Rea jr and Timoney, big Al is back in the row and Hume, Stockdale and Baloucoune need game time . A returning Herring and o"Toole - decent enough squad. Does Henderson need rested? He's just back?
Definite need a more clinical performance and the backline to start performing- our last two games we have been dominant but we haven't been scoring. Are Lowry and Luke Marshall out with injuries or just rested?

Neither Lowry / Marshall listed as injured but that list always seems to be incomplete for whatever reason. Henderson is within Ireland set up so his minutes are probably controlled.Silverstu wrote: ↑Wed Jan 04, 2023 5:43 pm They rested McCann, Rea jr and Timoney, big Al is back in the row and Hume, Stockdale and Baloucoune need game time .

I agree that this league game is more important, but there is absolutely 0% chance that Ulster will ever select a rotated team for a European game.jean valjean wrote: ↑Wed Jan 04, 2023 4:54 pm Agree that the benetton game is much more important that the LR one.

Lowry went off for an HIA against Connacht and didn't come back on, so he would have been in the head bin for Munster.

Hope is not a strategy.
