Not sure you got that the right way around.

I was thinking the same

Agreed. I tend to go for the smart alec post first, and think later.

Well, Crasher, at least one contributer to this forum goes home happy.
All the best for the rest of the seson.

Despite our hurt feelings, we are the fourth Province. Is part of our game plan (a) not to consistently retain the ball after a tackle and (b) to scrupulously avoid going for a turnover at the breakdown (c) to attack as individuals, rather than as a team? Has Rob Baloucoune lost confidence in his tu...

Or remove almost all regulations and let them get on with it hoping that self preservation will lead to a 'gentleman's agreement' between front rows.

Shame it wasn't on Sunday. 6161 has a nice ring to it.

The Ulster Rugby Medical Performance team has issued a squad update ahead of Saturday's BKT United Rugby Championship Round 7 fixture against Edinburgh Rugby at Kingspan Stadium.

Lyon beat Bayonne 42-29 on Friday night. Paddy scored a try, kicked 4 out of 5 conversions, kicked 2 penalties and dropped a goal. I can't remember the last time an Irish number 10 ticked all the scoring boxes in a game. But sure Crowley, Harry/Ross Byrne,Frawley, Prendergast, Carty, Hanrahan are a...

Looks like the first maximum layers cold weather day on Saturday.

What's the logic behind so many subs. I can understand how the front row is very abrasive but, at the end of the day, it's only 80 mins, with maybe a dozen scrums (or 100 if you count those frustrating resets!). On the other hand, it gets game time for a bigger number of players and allows young lad...

It's the one-man attacks, especially close to the line that get me. Why can they not attack in pods and get that extra initial oomph and then support to avoid getting isolated?

And, of course, the silly handling errors.
