Will be interesting to see Burns v Carbury in this one.
I can see a few changes in the Ulster side though as Cave and McCloskey have played all matches so far and he was going to start Speight at 13 last week until Gilroy got injured, on his contribution to date Speight seems to have been headless in defence so not sure how this will go.
19 injured players for this week's annual visit to the Turnip patch, looking like an enforced rest week before Connacht at home followed by the Euro matches

Very poor quality line they had him on though.
John is rapidly becoming a bit of a cult hero up here, he really has settled in well not just on the pitch but into the local community.
Worked out well all round, I don't recall ever seeing him playing for Connacht.
He played a good bit in his last season for them when Marmion was injured. He was arguably the form player when Marmion returned too. He also played 10 a few occasions when they had no one else and he performed very well iirc.
Don't think he ever got a fair shake in Leinster or Connacht but delighted he's hitting his stride in Ulster. Seems a good guy and a hard worker.

By my estimate only about 12% of the population of Limerick city were there.
We'll see next weekend what percentage of the population of Dublin will be in the RDS.
I'm expecting less than 2%

Oh, I say there will be a lot less than that.
You know I'm going to lose,
And gambling's for fools,
But that's the way I like it baby, I don't want to live FOREVER!
I always expected a loss with the team we had available but just not the scoreline, though when any side gets 20+ points behind you tend to move to desperate measures and it either works or goes the way it did last night.
No one died so take from it what you can and move on.

surely more than 50,000 people live in greater Limerick area?
