Oh dear oh dear. Poor Paddy at 10 again. Players who haven't played all season getting a start against Munster. Throwing in the towel methinks!

That backline would look so much better with Gilroy & Spence in the team.

Still a good opportunity for the younger players to make an impression.

Team rotation on a large scale with a few players not having had a game for a while,probably means we may struggle,but I'll support them and hope the young uns play well.C'MON ULSTER

Oh Sh!te...we're going to get hammered.

Glad to see Luke Marshall involved though, and also Paddy Jackson on the bench over NOC

Wallace at 10... :cry: :cry: :thumbdown: >TH

Kidney >TC has a lot to answer for.

Good to see Smith, Best, Faloon and Caldy back, NOC gone, and hope to see Jackson given a lash off the Bench. The thing is, I expect a Turnip victory by 20+points, nothing to loose lads.

Not looking forward to the match as a whole but certainly keen to see

L Marshall getting a good run

P Marshall was on fire his last two starts so fingers crossed he can do a repeat

W Faloon getting a starting position for a change

Jackson getting a crack at 10 - been a lot of talk about him so time so see if he matched the hype!

I would only count it a crack at 10 if he plays at least 20 mins but will be surprised if that happens.

Sensible selection for Munster. They send their young guys up to us. Just repay the compliment and you never know could be one of those games where we click - on the other hand we could get stuffed :|

Would like to have seen Buckley on from the start, would have been a big advantage to us if he was, can we not petition DK and demand Buckley start or is it just Ulster he likes to mess around :stir: , Paddy is not a 10 but then neither was the previous incumbent, though Paddy will be a lot better. Actually looking forward to the game and seeing what this team has to offer, if they're not fired up for this then they never will be....SUFTU :red:
