    I hope that it continues DD but I can’t see it. Happily be proved wrong however! Looks like it could be a battle with the D4 posh kids at the RDS for us

    You have to travel a bit further south to get to the real home of Irish rugby. It’ll be a bit quiet this weekend as they’re still competing in the Heineken Cup.

    Aye and it was even more quiet last April 😆

    Ok I’ll try to explain this. The refs when employed by their unions have an obligation to not bring the union into disrepute. However at IRB contracted events like the World Cup and presumably HK 7’s there is an obligation to not bring the IRB into disrepute. ie Don’t criticise your refereeing panel team mates.

    I agree totally AA but in his role he should have known better

    Tinybits my boss is on the 6N ref panel and was at the last World Cup they were all briefed on social media protocol. I’ll find out what the craic is. They are all assessed at every match, TJ TMO and all

    Got to agree with Hugh but probably best not to slag off your workmates on social media

    Pretty simple. He’s like Haskell but less intelligent

    That made me laugh at least! Fez is a cracking player and if fit would have been a nailed in starter. In every aspect of the game he is very good and excellent tackling, carrying and in the line out. Just a pity he wrecks himself all the time.

    Anyway back row of SOB, Tips and Toby for me

    Ferris is a girl. The most over rated back rower in the game.

    And your reasons for this ridiculous statement are?

    5 tries for Ulster in Galway. Hopefully should have a home semi now

    Was he a good price to be the midweek team captain then?

    I hadn’t realised that Kearney was knocked unconscious as a result. Nasty

    From Irish Times:

    O’Connell made contact with Kearney’s head while kicking the ball during the second half of the match in Limerick, but after reviewing video footage of the incident the citing commissioner, Eddie Walsh, decided the second row does not have a case to answer.

    It was felt that although O’Connell’s shin came into contact with Kearney’s head, the player was making a genuine attempt to get the ball and there was no deliberate intent to kick the Leinster winger.

    I agree it wasn’t deliberate but I did think he might have been cited for dangerous play

    If the Leon has cruise control I’d go for it if you are doing lots of m’way miles. I have a Golf S and it’s fine but there really aren’t many extras

    Well done Munster indeed!! How did POC play?

    I suppose I deserved that! Very disappointed with the performance, we were simply not accurate enough to beat a defence like Sarries. The scoreline flattered them a little as the first score should never have come from the line out which was an Ulster throw. The best team won however.

    The only positive was the return of Tommy Bowe who looked sharp considering he’s been out 4 months. Off to find a wolf hunter!

    @wrecker, not yet. 6.30 on Sat but it made me chuckle!

    Enjoyed the Glaws game, thought Yachvilli was outstanding.

    I work in construction and deal with a lot of Eastern European workers. Some leave the best work I have ever seen and others have cut corners and have had to had jobs redone. Recent example was using internal plaster as a backing for external render. The whole building has to be re-rendered and the original subbies have done a runner.

    As long as we get someone who can bring a level of professionalism to the role, an ability to deal with the blazers in D4 and doesn’t have a provincial bias then I’ll be happy. If I had my choice Jake White would be good.

    Tom considering he is the fourth choice at Ulster he done very well. Hopefully we will be able to hold onto him and develop him prop-erly (IGMC)

    It was a very good performance and our first win in Dublin since 1999 so hopefully this will give us a bit of confidence heading over to Sarries next w/e.

    Hope you enjoy it ijs but Ulster win!

    TBH its the strongest side we can put out, injuries to Wallace, Marshall, Bowe, Pienaar, Henderson, Fez, Wilson and Henry as well as Gilroy and Best excluded due to the IRFU management programme. Watch out for Nick Williams if he comes off the bench, explosive power at its best! Ulster have been poor in their past three games so need a big performance. SUFTUM!
