I might be wrong but it's his forearm not his shoulder that's damaged- he immediately nursed it and let the arm go limp as soon as it happened.
Didn't hear the numpty in question but thought it looked more collar bone or shoulder. We'll know soon enough.

Just watch the tries again. Watch Ruan's reactions when Big Dan scores the 4th try.

RUAN IS AN ULSTER MAN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Noticed that too, coupled with the body on the line try saving tackle as well as his 1st ever scrap in an Ulster shirt and we have some man for 1 man. :red: :cheers:

Hats off also to the fans who made it over, made yourselves heard and got a great "I was there moment." :salut:
NEVER MOVE ON. Years on, I cannot ever watch Ireland with anything but indifference, I continue to wish for the imminent death of Donal Spring, the FIRFUC's executioner of Wee Paddy & Wee Stu, and I hate the FIRFUCs with undiminished passion.

Watched a video montage of our HEC tries from the last two years on YouTube and comparing then to now its quite, well, breathtaking how much the team has changed, for the better. For a start we are a lot more clinical, and the flair and confidence of the whole team and backs especially is completely different.

Nothing but admiration for Mark right now :red:

Anyone see Henderson getting head butted just before he was sent off. I couldn't see which Saints player it was but goes to clear the ruck-with his head but I don't think he made a good contact. It's at about 71min into the match.

Dorian-Jones I thought.. there's a nasty dirty streak to Saints I dislike intensely. Their fans are great people, but short changed by some scumbags on the turf tbh.. they deserve better than that muck. >6shooter

suspected that also,no attempt to clear the ruck just looked like a charge down at his head!
