Sincerest apologies Justin.

Minus 7 now.

2-7 to win outright. Could have got 6-4 if you were quick enough at noon.

Although you could probably get longer odds than 6-4 on us keeping all 15 on the field.

You've got to get your first tackle in early, even if it's late.

That seems excessive and could be compensating for the earlier generous odds on Ulster.

But in the current game with the trend for a card or two to decide a result, i am afraid Quins at 7/2 seems generous.

Saints looked the more beatable of the 2 yesterday tbh.

I couldn't see Ulster doing much against that Dragon's defence.

Well that's a matter of opinion, of course.

Nhampton kicked over them to touch. Their big 3/4 made some ground/space, but didn't get much change out of the Dragons defensive line in structured play. Penalties (of which the modern game is not short) were Nhampton's biggest weapon.

In contrast, Northampton's defence was slower and less well drilled. Much more opportunities for a bit of magic from the Ulstermen in our team.
