Ulster were certainly unfortunate not to have come away with more from their encounter with Leinster at the RDS . . .

      Not particularly but I don’t get upset about it.

      Happy New Year to you too.

    Despite the moans and groans and whinneys and whines above, I thought it was a cracking game – great entertainment, which after all, is what it’s all about.

    If you want entertainment go to the movies. Professional rugby is about winning you loser.

    On second thoughts perhaps choir practice might be more up you street

    Despite the moans and groans and whinneys and whines above, I thought it was a cracking game – great entertainment, which after all, is what it’s all about. A good Ulster performance against a great side. I was in the North Stand so wasn’t aware that D’Arcy’s pass to Kearney was forward – not too many protests from the 18,000+ crowd! It was more of a soft try as was Heaslip’s – a big Garryowen that Ulster failed to deal with. Again, looking positively, we produced some excellent creative attacking rugby and were let down by the final pass.

    I think many of us were expecting a Munster v Connacht scoreline. Looking forward to this Saturday.

    Saturday was my first URSC trip and I must say the organisation was excellent though the ‘choir’ on the way home was shite. I suggest that such ‘singing’ is more injurious to minors than alcohol on the bus!

    I have been a long time admirer of George Clancys incompetence but until the Ulster Branch grow a set and demand neutral referees get used to losing. Oh thats right we have. The last time anything was neutral in Ireland was the Republic during both world wars! Is it only a coincidence that the last time we beat the Mexicans it was with an English referee? O’Brien should have got two yellows (the second would therefore be red) for two professional fouls but that would be childish to point out. The Ladyboys know they got a good hiding upfront and but for Clancy and a couple of forward passes would have lost. Bring on the Bog men of Turnipstan.

    PS Good to see my tip to make a break through this season get a game , Jamie Smith , maturity beyond his years. Well done.
