This could be a real banana skin. Glasgow are the top team in the Pro14 and they hockeyed us out of it the last time we played. Do you really think we can win johng?
It could be a banana skin, but I highly doubt it. Trying to draw any conclusions from the result and the team we sent to Scotstoun in November is ridiculous.

It was probably the weakest / most inexperienced team we fielded all season and probably should have come away from there with 2 points against the top team overall in the league.

Also, I can’t remember the last time any Glasgow side came to Dublin and won. The best they’ve done in the last 6 years is a draw a couple of season ago.

Edinburgh got a 34-33 win tonight without getting a bonus point. It can happen!

Given the lineups and our form we really should be getting 5pts from this. Especially if Ulster and Exeter hold up their end of the bargin and we know exactly what we've to do to effectively seal a top 2 seeding.
The sport that unites Catholic, Protestant and dissenter has had its day of days. Pity anybody who can't enjoy it. Some day.

While I expect Exeter to get a win vs Montpellier, I reckon Ulster need a miracle and think it highly unlikely they'll beat La Rochelle. Still, we live in hope..... SUFTUM!!!!!

Ulster 20-13 La Rochelle. Didn't see that coming. Ulster were being destroyed for the first 20 minutes. Rory Best turned it around single-handedly with a turnover and a try. Fantastic individual performance from the Ireland captain!!!!

Well it is if you don't pronounce the letter R which they don't in the south east of England.

Conveniently the people in the south west of England put in extra Rs where they don't exist to keep up the quota.

5 tries in the bank at halftime, looks like we're sitting pretty but this is where you put the foot down and press home the dominance, don't relax, don't let them get a sniff at consolation tries, not a sniff. We're not here to give suckers an even break as some commentators may say....

Well, this is easier than expected.

Bar a few moments of ill discipline and simple errors (Toner from kick offs) we've been imperious.

Wouldn't mind seeing Porter, Byrne, Ryan, McCarthy get significant gametime.

Sexton should be off. No questions just get Byrne on.

Need to keep going here and put up a big score, then play our strongest side next week too.
Our first team will be unavailable for a good number of weeks anyway after that, but securing a home semi is crucial
