Where will the final be now?

Can BR do live updates depending on scores?

For all the gnashing on here about Ulster's weak mentality after the Munster defeat post Toulouse, it seems like the other 2 Irish teams who suffered late heartbreak in Europe also struggled to recover

Ulster and Stormers were higher seeded than Bulls so winner so winner should have home advantage

Very unlike Leinster. I wonder how much of a mental boost will it give the Ulster squad knowing the bluenoses are out.

Location: second barrier up, at the half-way line ... or is the third?

From URC website (https://www.unitedrugby.com/latest/news ... 18-clashes )

"League rankings determined which teams were placed into each Final Eight fixture with home advantage in the Final Four going to the winners of Quarter-final 1 and Quarter-final 2. Home advantage for the URC Grand Final going to the team with the highest ranking."

So in answer to your question, it should be at Ravenspan.

I wonder will the bulls wait now to see the result of tomorrow to decide whether to travel back to SA?

Waiting.

Marcell wants another week in Ireland and a final at Ravers.

The man himself Jake White answered my question- they’ll wait to see

Apparently not. Beating a higher ranked team in the qf gave you home advantage in the semi, but Final will be at the home of tomorrow's winner. That's what they're saying on TV, and no reason to doubt it.

Jake White also covered this- they’re away from home regardless of who wins tomorrow

Is it just me or is Plug getting less ugly as he gets older?

Just looking like an elderly country yokel now.
