And we need to be allowed to sign more of them.

In the meantime, a thrashing or a classic does sound about right.

Let’s switch Billy on to full mercurial mode and get him punting those little kicks left, right and centre.

Ulster could qualify for the knockout stages this weekend if they win (4pts) and Quins win at Cardiff and Bath beat Racing at The Rec, without either Cardiff or Racing getting 2 LBP's (both very possible). It would make finishing in the top 2 though highly unlikely, as would expect Toulouse to beat Bath in France in their final game.

An ulster win and a Racing win at Bath this weekend would give ulster a decent chance of a top 2 finish , IF THEY ALSO WON AT QUINS, given Tolouse vs Bath next weekend . However a loss at Quins in this scenario could see them eliminated, with Racing and Quins moving ahead of them.

Is there a chance of the pitch being frozen again this weekend? I’ll be mightily cheesed off, as I’m flying back over for the game.
As an aside what have UR got in place to avoid this scenario, now they’ve gone down the plastic pitch route?

He asked for suggestions about what to do in Belfast on Sunday morning, so I'm struggling, Martyrs Memorial perhaps....

But it’s three starts and three wins for Matty!

Quite like Reffell. He certainly gets in the thick of it.
