    About to kick off.

    Ulster need a LBP here. Jared Payne returns to the Ulster side at FB. Alan O'Connor and Wiebhan Herbst return to the pack and Ruan Pienaar, Paddy Jackson and Andrew Trimble come back into the backs. Unfortunately Nick Williams and Chris Henry miss out.

    Brad Barritt is a late withdrawal for Sarries and is replaced by Duncan Taylor. Jerome Garces is the ref.

    C'mon Ulster

    did one of the BT commentators just excuse what Ashton did..?

    BOD wants to just close his eyes and listen to Farrell hitting his sweet spot...

    Looked like the TV guys found clear footage just after the decision had been made...

    no BOD talked after him saying "In Ashtons defence you get desperate when you see your player head towards touchline"
    so ya, they both were Ashton Apologists- must be in the BT Sports contract :pac:

    Should hooking Diaks hand at the linocut not be a penalty?

    The angle is never perfect for any kicker. The only perfect angle is 90 degrees. Farrell missed a similar kick

    They've been doing it for years at Saracens, no idea why. Did they steal it from France?

    Can't help but feel if we had Henry and Williams on the field our pack would front up just that little bit more. Maybe not though.

    Sarries just pure power. We need a bit of a lucky break and break the game up a bit. Maybe herring at 7 later might help

    Farrell does his crossed fingers thing for a kids charity I think right? Maybe it's tied into that

    Could have sworn he stepped into the outside midfield channel to make that try.
