Ulster v "The best backline in Europe"

Re: Ulster v "The best backline in Europe"
Ruan, Jacko, general selection of centres and wings and Charlie at fullback there backline for this Friday is certainly neither the best in Europe or on the pitch on Friday night either.
I will be very disappointed if we don't rip them to shreds and get a bonus point try while they go back to their sheep empty handed

Re: Ulster v "The best backline in Europe"
How can we play our own backline?
Re: Ulster v "The best backline in Europe"
I thought the Pro12 policy was neutral officials but with Dudley last week and Young Ben on Friday night we seem to be back to normal. I suppose Whitehouse is marginally more desirable than Ian Davies, ( Pat Lamb. Best friend when it comes to car parking.)
Re: Ulster v "The best backline in Europe"
He seems to have cleaned up his act and is playing some tremendous rugby at present. A tough nut for a stringbean. Though it pains me to say it, he is possibly the best FB in the Brit Isles at the moment (and that includes Hogg).222toHounslow wrote:Liam Williams is a Bellend

Sorry to disagree but I think you meant to say that Spide Williams will be playing opposite the best FB in the Brit Isles at the momentSpiffsson wrote:He seems to have cleaned up his act and is playing some tremendous rugby at present.

One of the assistant referees and the TMO will be neutral where possible.Aird wrote:I thought the Pro12 policy was neutral officials but with Dudley last week and Young Ben on Friday night we seem to be back to normal.

You haven't seen me at my best yet. Let's be honest, you probably never will.

From that list, I'd pick BR, but then I'm biased.UlsterNo9 wrote:I ask you BR, Whitehouse or Clowncy?BR wrote:I like him too, but he was born about 7 miles from Stradey.Rooster wrote:Good ref, I like young WhitehouseSparkyClarky wrote:Ulster vs Scarlets

Re: Ulster v "The best backline in Europe"
This Friday, I shall be mostly looking forward to Liam meeting Charlie. If Trimble plays, my weekend will be off to best start imaginable.

Re: Ulster v "The best backline in Europe"
Aird, it may have been either BR, Jesus or somebody else who mentioned this last week, but what is absolutely clear is that neutral refs for all matches is just not possible, there are too few Scots or Italians of anything close to the high standard set by George Clancy.Aird wrote:I thought the Pro12 policy was neutral officials but with Dudley last week and Young Ben on Friday night we seem to be back to normal.

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.

Re: Ulster v
In that scenario I would prefer it to be the GLU agin Williams, not Charlie Boy.Rooster wrote:preferably head on about 2m from the try line and Liam tries to stop Charlie scoring, wakes up later next weekJoe Schmo wrote:This Friday, I shall be mostly looking forward to Liam meeting Charlie.

Charlie would step around him, Trimby would just go through him.
