Scarlets v Ulster match thread

Not as big a game as others, but I think Ulster need the BP.

errlloyd · 14-12-2014 5:18pm

Solid preview, could have done with a table. 8 out of 10.

vienne86 · 14-12-2014 5:19pm

Square eyes at this stage, but yes, have to watch it!

Swan Curry · 14-12-2014 5:26pm

Fantastic turnover from Best there

.ak · 14-12-2014 5:27pm

Poor from ludik

vienne86 · 14-12-2014 5:28pm

Two huge kicks to touch for Scarlets. Now they have a penalty from the line out. 3-0. 'Mon Ulster!

Swan Curry · 14-12-2014 5:30pm

Rhodri Williams already having a bit of a nightmare

Pudsy33 · 14-12-2014 5:33pm

Scarlets scrum on top there, that's worrying.

awec · 14-12-2014 5:36pm

iHumph with the obligatory missed tackle almost gifts them a try

Swan Curry · 14-12-2014 5:36pm

I thought Best was okay there

vienne86 · 14-12-2014 5:39pm

Ulster not doing damage when they get into Scarlets territory.

Swan Curry · 14-12-2014 5:46pm

Parc y Scarlets need a few new CDs

awec · 14-12-2014 5:47pm

Is there a rule that you can't tackle someone on the floor?

Ah - the commentator explained it. Can't tackle but you don't have to let him up.

vienne86 · 14-12-2014 5:47pm

Ulster giving away too many penalties - indisciplined.

I actually thought (dunno why) that rule only existed in the 22

LuckyGent88 · 14-12-2014 5:50pm

Awful stuff from ulster so far. Silly errors and poor penalties given away.

Swan Curry · 14-12-2014 5:51pm

Ulster are an incredibly stupid team, it's irritating to watch

.ak · 14-12-2014 5:53pm

Harsh penalty.

To be fair some of the penalties have been debateable. Still this is pretty abject.

Swan Curry · 14-12-2014 5:54pm

There's the Rhys Priestland we all know

BBDBB · 14-12-2014 5:56pm

Ulster looking fairly toothless, hope the 2nd half is better

It's one of the most incorrectly quoted laws. You don't have to let him up, you just can't go off your feet. Once he's down, you can attack and jackal as long as you don't go off your own feet.

Were going out tonight.

Unfortunately yes.

Pathetic showing so far

Sure it might be the kindest thing.

ulster_Beef · 14-12-2014 5:58pm

I do love the Neil doak style of coaching. As an Ulster fan I do envy Leinster and Munster mentalities

Not a fan myself so far but it is hard to judge him as he hasn't had complete controll all season. We will hope to see a second half reaction.

Bridge93 · 14-12-2014 6:04pm

Conditions look horrific

14-12-2014 6:05pm

This is a dire showing from Ulster. Hard to see where the spark will come from for a turnaround.

vienne86 · 14-12-2014 6:05pm

Lacklustre affair......Ulster have no urgency. Hard to believe they need a bonus point win here. Almost as if they have given up.

They don't need a try bonus

bilston · 14-12-2014 6:15pm

Beautiful from Marshall and Cave.

Awww that is sublime centre play...

George Hook · 14-12-2014 6:15pm

Well done!

vienne86 · 14-12-2014 6:15pm

Now that's more like it from Ulster. Very well worked try for Cave.

Swan Curry · 14-12-2014 6:17pm

Balls, missed the try. Was it a good one?

Yeah it was actually. Two inside balls, like twice as good as Leinster.

Bridge93 · 14-12-2014 6:20pm

After starting well Priestland is keeping Ulster in this

Bridge93 · 14-12-2014 6:21pm

That's a poor call by the linesman, never forward

LuckyGent88 · 14-12-2014 6:24pm

Superb kick by piennar to the corner

George Hook · 14-12-2014 6:25pm

david humphreys is apparently playing lads.

vienne86 · 14-12-2014 6:25pm

Brilliant kick to touch for IHumph there. Great chance. Didn't get the try (should have) but have a penalty.

Heard that. Jazuz, these BT guys!

awec · 14-12-2014 6:30pm

Bloody hell Humphreys

errlloyd · 14-12-2014 6:31pm

Hmm, if my Xmas present us wrapped that poorly I'll be disappointed

vienne86 · 14-12-2014 6:32pm

Lots of chances there for Ulster, but no points to show for it.

Let Pienaar kick

Update on the score please....

Is this what it's like for opposition fans watching BBC NI?
