    Easily the worst performance of the season.

    A case could be made for winning the other 5 losses but this has been unwatchable.

    'Fussy' is an unfair spin on 'correct'.

    How did Ulster get possession back for that try?

    Aki needs to cop himself on.

    Card coming here. Trimble deliberately knocked that forward.

    Aki being told to calm down again today.

    That's correct


  • Registered Users Posts: 12,428 ✭✭✭✭AdamD


    Not sure what the ref is supposed to do here, clear penalty offences everywhere.


  • Registered Users Posts: 24,191 ✭✭✭✭Buer


    Deserved card. Should have had one before halftime.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,440 ✭✭✭The Rape of Lucretia


    Good play by Trimble. Right decision in the circumstances, and well executed.

    Can't blame him for getting upset - deliberate ceap that ukster have been getting away with all night

    Connacht ruck protection was been awful.

    Think Robbie should have passed there.

    In defence, great!

    Well, Connacht scored the only try of the game so not sure that's correct. You have a point though, Ulster had great line speed in the reverse fixture and completely negated our attack


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,818 ✭✭✭Inspector Coptoor


    More butchery by Connacht in a try scoring position.

    So frustrating

    If it had been something dirty like a late or high hit or something niggly, fair enough but getting into handbags over a slapped down pass is one I've never seen before.


  • Registered Users Posts: 17,075 ✭✭✭✭vienne86


    Connacht lucky to get that back. Good chance with a scrum in enemy territory and a man up.

    Jaysus, replay that maul again later. It was just Rory Best stopping Connacht.

    'Fussy' is an unfair spin on 'correct'.

    Yeah, Generally I agree. But there has been some very very marginal calls whether a penalty occurred or not. And in that situation giving a penalty just disrupts the game. Like when Henderson was pinged for taking the man out beyond the ball, it was probably a correct call but did it make a material difference. Ulster were moving the ball to the open side and Henderson skimmed off the blindside defender.


  • Registered Users Posts: 24,191 ✭✭✭✭Buer


    Toner wouldn't have caught that.


  • Registered Users Posts: 17,075 ✭✭✭✭vienne86


    Aw no - pass in to touch. Wonderful.

    Good defence by Ulster.


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,818 ✭✭✭Inspector Coptoor


    Starting to bang on the door a bit harder now.

    Need to score something with the man advantage.

    Going wide to early. Some forwards making good ground. Gotta make the extra man tell. They're letting Ulster use the whitewash as a 15th man.

    Great try from Kaylin


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 14,521 ✭✭✭✭mansize


    Get in!


  • Registered Users Posts: 17,075 ✭✭✭✭vienne86


    That was a great try for Blade. Hope he's OK.


  • Registered Users Posts: 24,191 ✭✭✭✭Buer


    Great try. Looked like a high hit as he was scoring.


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,818 ✭✭✭Inspector Coptoor


    Boom.

    What a great try.

    Blade injecting much needed pace at the base after coming on for Cooney.

    The hands were class
