Re: Toulouse v Ulster Heineken QF
Faddes ahead of Madigan is a bit of a surprise. You don't play 50 odd games for the Highlanders if you're a bad player, but to my eye he hasn't shown much since he got here. Madigan would have offered something off the bench if were chasing the game.
Coetzee is a huge loss.

Re: Toulouse v Ulster Heineken QF
The guys on the Toulouse forum seem to be a bit shocked that Medard isn't in their side. They'll have to make do with Huget and Kolbe, such a hard life.

Re: Toulouse v Ulster Heineken QF
Where is the go forward ball going to come from, McCloskey and that would be about it. Hopefully Hendo will be a bit fitter after another week, O'Toole possibly is our first choice TH now, I guess we are going to have to play quite an open game. Not being favourites we can take the gamble of a 6-2 bench, hoping for no injuries in the backline.
Toulouse has some players in that team, Huget, Kolbe, Ntamack, Dupont, Faumuina, Kaino, Tekori, not that hopeful!

Re: Toulouse v Ulster Heineken QF
Any truth in the news from Coetzee's family that he isn't injured. Just being rested!

Re: Toulouse v Ulster Heineken QF
Faddes is the top try scorer in the Pro 14 for Ulster, having also gained the most metres. This despite not being fully fit, not having a great run of games, seemingly taking his time to settle and not catching many people’s eye.MightyRearranger wrote: ↑Fri Sep 18, 2020 3:32 pm Faddes ahead of Madigan is a bit of a surprise.

The game is likely to open up on Sunday so hopefully it’s the start of great things to come from the fella.

They had a few when we won over there five years ago too, albeit some were a bit past their best.Lurgan Lad wrote: ↑Fri Sep 18, 2020 5:08 pm Where is the go forward ball going to come from, McCloskey and that would be about it.

I’ve always liked Huget. Great hair. His wife is called F a n n y, believe it or not.

Re: Toulouse v Ulster Heineken QF
Ugo monye reckons we will win. Our only hope is if the slow progression we have made in each game turns into a torrent, and the famed French lack of fitness early in the season is evident. Feck it, cooney will kick us to glory.

Wish I shared Ugo's optimism but I can't look past that Toulouse side. Will be a very long afternoon if we're beaten up front.

Re: Toulouse v Ulster Heineken QF
I wonder how many Ulster games Ugo has seen this season?

Couldn’t have a build up to this game without a new article about this :-

We'd almost forgotten about that. I wonder if anybody knows how many days it's been? ...Bart S wrote: ↑Sun Sep 20, 2020 1:30 am Couldn’t have a build up to this game without a new article about this :-

Re: Toulouse v Ulster Heineken QF
The act itself is one thing, people can do idiotic things in a moment of madness. The lies and attempt to smear the person he assaulted after the fact is a bit harder to get past though. Haven't read the article, but imagine it leaves that bit out.
Re: Toulouse v Ulster Heineken QF
Can someone inform BT that Cooney started the semi.
