    Lealiifano is off already......being wrapped up in cotton wool, I'd say. And it looks like the replacement, Nelson, has just bagged a try.

    That no. 22 looks a fine player. He has created 2 tries out of nothing. Great to see a bit of pace.

    These Cheetahs are looking a decent outfit. Their lineout looks solid. They seem fine in the scrums too.

    Remember they are match fit, unlike Ulster.

    How did he ever get capped for Ireland? Apart from a decent lineout jump what has he got going for him?

    Great soft and quick hands earlier to put someone away for a try.

    Cheetahs keep making a mistake just as they're about to break through Ulster. Very entertaining to watch though.

    Bull**** call for grabbing Trimble's collar. Zero danger in that 'high tackle'.

    That's what I was thinking when looking at it, seemed ridiculous if it was for a high tackle. So dodgy call there and probably the Ulster try from the line out earlier.

    BBC saying was clear yellow was kinda farcical, how can grabbing the coller be high?

    Because BBC are biased towards Ulster.

    They didn't. The opposite in fact.

    I just can't get my head around that. What has he, a jog around in America and two months' rest and he's not ready to start the season. Lads that age should be frothing at the mouth to be getting game time.

    Cheetahs need a defence coach. They clearly don't have one.

    I thought Nelson reminded me of a certain Leinster superstar of yore so I looked him up to jog my memory and learned that
    Fanjo is now the taco king of dublin. Is IT Tallaght to the bone, and isn't a natural red head but dyes it red to be alternative
