At least we didn't concede a tbp to them but it wasn't for the want of trying.
Apologies for rubbing salt in the wound.

Treviso are at home to Zebre while we have Glasgow at home and Munster away, this year's Euro semi finals may help us at Munster and most of us a pissed off that our match is next Saturday as we will miss your match

Weegies are not starting with first-choice props and no Gray in the 2nd row. Hard to call it 'full Glasgow side'.

Not sure we have first choice props at the minute or a first choice XV for that matter.Ruckedtobits wrote:Weegies are not starting with first-choice props and no Gray in the 2nd row. Hard to call it 'full Glasgow side'.
Ali and Finn need to find their mojo and soon as they've been terrible for the past few games.
Should be a good game.

Saffer ref Mr Berry doing it. Don’t know a lot about his style.
Helen O’Reilly running the line.

Wondered where Helen had vanished too been a while since she has been involved, thought at one stage she was going to be first female ref in the leagueneill_m wrote:Saffer ref Mr Berry doing it. Don’t know a lot about his style.

Re: Ulster 2018-2019
Excellent second-half and win for Ulster with Timoney scoring two great tries, one on each wing, in Kieran Reid style. Excellent displays in the centre of the pitch for McCluskey and Marshall. And his namesake Paul produced an excellent cameo of the last 30 minutes to bow out with Tommy Bowe.
Will definitely be in play-off with Ospreys for European slot.

Re: Ulster 2018-2019
Well done Ulster! After the season they’ve had, getting to- and winning a play-off would be a great late season result. Really hope they can do it.
Their new signing- “Nordie” looked really good yesterday too. Next year could be much better for them.

Rumours that Byrne or Carbury have to move up to us as well, IRFU decision to boost backup for Jonny for RWC now that Jackson is gone out of system

It's been reported in the media that Leo Cullen has been told to decide which of RB or impossiblenametospellcorrectly goes north next season.rooster wrote:Rumours that Byrne or Carbury have to move up to us as well, IRFU decision to boost backup for Jonny for RWC now that Jackson is gone out of system
The logic would say JC moves to get game time at 10. If RB moves we will have the issue of both Leinster 10's away (JS and JC) for periods of international duty. Not good
However, if JC is subject to poor coaching during his time in Belfast he will not develop and it will be a bad move for everyone.
If Joe is pushing for this move it suggests the IRFU has a strategy for Ulster in order to tempt players north.
On the other hand I would back Ross Byrne to progress to the Ireland squad next season. He is a better game manager than Joey at the moment and will improve through being coached by Lanny.
The odds are good but the goods are odd.

Re: Ulster 2018-2019
The point you make about us having no outhalf cover if J10 and Joey are away is well made. We'd be playing Marsh or a kid. Joey is clearly a much better natural talent than Byrne and Joe sees his has Sexton's successor, I'd tend to agree, Byrne is a good player but nowhere near a number 2 in the world international outhalf.outcast eddie wrote:It's been reported in the media that Leo Cullen has been told to decide which of RB or impossiblenametospellcorrectly goes north next season.rooster wrote:Rumours that Byrne or Carbury have to move up to us as well, IRFU decision to boost backup for Jonny for RWC now that Jackson is gone out of system

In terms of getting game time, if Joey stays and plays when Sexton is unavailable, he'll get plenty of game time but the IRFU need to help Leinster out a bit as Joey has been shifted around the backline because so many players are either injured or on Ireland duty. We've been playing the kids to cover but now the kids are also in the Ireland squad!
Flash ahhhh ahhh, he'll save every one of us
Re: Ulster 2018-2019
Has there been any word or rumblings about who the next Ulster head coach will be yet?
Re: Ulster 2018-2019

Re: Ulster 2018-2019
Ulster have confirmed they will host international side Uruguay in a friendly at Kingspan Stadium on Friday November 9 (kick-off 7:30pm).
What a scoop!
If they win maybe they could write a Play about it.

Cathal Marsh leaving Leinster. Could he be headed North?
