Ulster v Edinburgh match thread

awec

Big Marcel Marceau starts for Ulster the night. Nelson at 10, Olding at 12, Herbst back, wee John Andrew at hooker.

Paul Marshall though.

Worth watching.

Diabhal Beag

Paul Marshall directing traffic? Count me in!

awec

Good start.

Edinburgh try after 2 mins.

vienne86

Try Embra.....Ulster watching!

Sinbad_NI

See not too much has changed in the first defensive effort.

Bridge93

Edinburgh immediately look better than last week. Much better conditions I suppose

wp_rathead

Good try by Edinburgh but Jaysus all from that brain dead boxkick on the full

bilston

Seriously feck off Ulster.

Marshall kicks out on the full and then Ulster soft as s**** in defence.

vienne86

Little delay by Marhall allowed Edinburgh to organise themselves in defnece.

Diabhal Beag

Marshall was eaten up there for the try.

bilston

Ulster forwards are making some yards tonight which is encouraging.

Impressed by John Andrew so far.

vienne86

Ah Small Paul gets a try. Bless him!

Sinbad_NI

More like it. Olding and Nelson looking sharp.

bilston

Nelson and Olding looking really sharp

vienne86

Commentators saying Olding taking kicks......then remember he doesn't have red hair!

Great to see them going so well after long absence......particularly Nelson.

Sinbad_NI

Some great play there.

awec

"Brings back the Neil Doak plays of yesteryear".

Shut up iHumph.

Diabhal Beag

An absolutely pish scrum for the Embra

crisco10

It's only been 14 mins, but I'm already reminded about what I like about Olding. Such a lovely footballer - it was his two contributions that made that ulster try.

awec

Piutau is just too good at rugby. Ridiculous to watch.

And another one there.

vienne86

Another try Ulster. This is just great to see - great intensity!

bilston

The power of Jacob Stockdale there!

Diabhal Beag

Try bonus point win on the way here. Piatau is some man.

Bazzo

Jaysus, some strength from Stockdale.

vienne86

What a let off for Ulster.....Edinburgh should have been in. Good tackle by Nelson.

wp_rathead

Fecking hell let off the hook there

Diabhal Beag

Nelson and Marshall were defensively outstanding to survive a certain try

crisco10

Nelson did well there, actually covered both Edinburgh attackers

launish116

Ulster's defence...

Diabhal Beag

Super clearance

bilston

I realise Herron is a work in process but we have really missed Nelson this season as a back up 10.

His kicking is pretty questionable but otherwise he's good.

crisco10

Jaysus, do you think Neil Doak coaches this team??? iHumph not letting us forget.

awec

Stop kicking the fcuking ball Marshall. :mad:

bilston

Jaysus Piutau

crisco10

F#ing hell. Piatau.

Great shout from Ludik though, clearly demanded the no look pass.

launish116

Pro12 & Ulster really are bless with Charles playing

vienne86

Piutau is some guy! Made a lovely try for Ludik. This is great stuff from Ulster.

awec

I like Piutau.

A lot.

bilston

Why have we been playing this guy at FB?!

Diabhal Beag

Edinburgh are so **** in defence it's gas

Hopefully they keep him on the wing for the rest of the season

Bazzo

Piutau is on another planet to the rest of us.

CMOTDibbler

So Neil Doak wasn't the problem, it was Wee Paddy. :pac:

awec

Piutau could beat 3 men in a phone box.

bilston

Ah what a try!

awec

Another cracking try.

Edinburgh are mince.

vienne86

And there's the BP on 32 minutes! This is lovely rugby from Ulster.

connemara man

Really like the effort to get more central there
