Dragons 23 – 6 Ulster

ulster120 This was a deeply depressing match as Ulster capitulated to a fairly average Dragons side.

With 35+ fans watching the events unfold at The Rosie things went flat fairly quickly as the Dragons ran in their first try after 13 minutes of scrappy play by both sides.

As time went on the worse Ulster looked. In the friendlies this season Ulster had been looking to play on the front foot in attack and defence but the sorry fact from this game was that there was only one team up for it and that was the Dragons. The Welsh side were in Ulster’s faces with their abrasive defence and quite frankly they outmuscled them at the breakdown, which was deeply disappointing.

    Over-excited fan has good teeth for a 40-year-old. Pity about the rest of him. Well done Dewi for organising the Rosie. Shame you were drinking Coke. Fruit.

    I couldn’t face another hammering at the Liberty, Charlotte never leaves me alone!

    He usually does give them a bit of a team talk after the game at away matches!

    He’s going to the Ospreys this weekend so they have been warned!

      Well done FRU for organising the Rosie – good crowd and great atmosphere when we were in charge of the game (in the first 5 minutes!).

      We’ll give the Rosie a wave from Swansea next week – 4 of the boys on tour going – things can only get better! Can’t they?

    Not me either, can’t face an even longer trip down the M4 to watch more of the same so quickly…time is a healer and I’m hoping I will calm down soon. Pitza, Pasta and Peroni on my list of banned substances in honour of that hapless Italian who played his part in ruining my Sunday afternoon.

    Nope – saving beer tokens for Brussels!!! Admire your faith though – Liberty is lonely place when on the receiving end of a drubbing…
