Our discipline is awful, nothing has changed from last year bar the personnel.

McCullough pinged for not being on his feet.

Penalty drifts wide, 12-9 at half time.

This is poor, poor stuff. No pattern, no phases, no quality.

agree with that Barney
discipline awful - giving pens away straight from ko and restarts
mccullough's now on a warning
very scrappy - we've butchered a couple of possessions in their 22 with knock ons
dominating possession from lineout
cardiff offering nothing - came back into it in last 10 mins with a couple of breaks from scrum and ruck - wtf was the pillar?

jonathan davies being his usual complimentary self about ulster

spotted - jamesie, gaz, scrumstretcher, chairman bill, welsh chick (but not welsh chick's mum - welsh chick's boyfriend instead), about 25 or so i reckon dotted about on the far terrace

dickson is on irb 'b' panel apparently - wtf does that mean?

additional - trimble generally good - chased a couple of kicks forcing knockons and turnovers; important tackle in own 22 winning penalty but went awol when powell (no

came on a charge

That Powell charge I would blame Best for as he went missing from the scrum. Trimble I think was back for the kick which I presume was were he was told to be. He also needs to learn how to go down on a ball Steiner bailed him out big style. If we take a our chances we will run in a few tries, we will definitly create chances but we have to take them.

As for Jonatha Davies what a feckin prat, hard to listen to.

OK, here we go again.

25 handling errors in the first half apparently, will we top that in the 2nd half?

Two from the re-start

Steiner makes another good chase back, super pickup in our 22

First change would be PW off, your not up to it son, and TB to full back and Jimmy on the wing. I don't rate topping at all but if it means getting a player at FB then it has to be done.

Sidoli comes in from the side, Humph pushes the kick wide from 45 m

Wallace is in trouble, and the Cardiff crowd know it.

Hands on the floor from Ulster after Paddy coughs up an up and under.

15-9 for Cardiff from the penalty on 49 mins.

Frostie on for McCullough.

Ulster scrum on the Cardiff 22: we're penalised for not binding and kicked back over the half way.

15-12 on 58 mins, Cardiff pinged for preventing the ball coming back

barney · Post by **barney** » Fri Sep 09, 2005 8:29 pm

Cardiff pinged for standing up in the scrum.

Humph makes it 15-15 on 61 mins.

The vino is kicking in, at least it is dulling the pain.

TRY TIME!

KC box-kicks from the base of the scrum, Tommy collects a kind bounce on the touchline and runs in under the posts.

Humph adds the extras for 22-15 to Ulster!

Cardiff have replaced their tight-head. Ref warns both front rows.
