Ulster vs Munster, Fri 3 Jan, 7:35pm, Eir

Bridge93

Loughman taking his schoolmate round the neck. Strange to think of that Blackrock College 2014 team, 3 are playing for Munster, 2 for ulster and none for Leinster.

Daly did very well there

Robson just doesn’t shut up.
Another penalty given away by Munster.

A literal choke tackle...!

Clegg

Few yellows there for Munster.

Bridge93

No yellow there for Murray. Great read even if he didn’t catch it. That’s a try if it gets outsid him. Ulster should be out of sight, really need a try

sydthebeat

Good captaining by Henderson.

Making sure to keep ulster dominance in the refs mind

Would be odd for a commentator to shut up.

Should be a yellow as well for that offside

Bridge93

Must be in a crowd of one who enjoy Robson. Once you don’t take him too seriously I love his enthusiasm

ScrubsfanChris

Jesus Murray, you had a chance there.

razorblunt

Poor from Earls again.

Christmas cracker jokes were so last week.

He can't possibly play for Ireland again in this sort of form.

Said in during the World Cup massacre and still think it now. Conway and Stockdale to wing for Ireland. The prematch chat from DOC and Flanery was crap. Earls is in no way shape or form a shoe in, no analysis offered by either except picking their mate

Not watching but robson is awful. I imagine it’s hard to fill time during 80 mins talking when nothing is happening but Jesus it can’t be as hard as he makes it when he goes on about some nonsense utterly irrelevant to game. Biased too obviously but doesn’t annoy me as much as the rambling.

DK
FTW

Stockdale pushes Conway on the catch, McCloskey seat belt on POM and Murray tackled similarly to Cooney. None given. All back to back within 20 seconds.

He got caught badly narrow there but I think it's a bit early to write him off completely

sydthebeat

Completely brain dead by Henderson

Clegg

Apart from the opening few minutes Ulsters pack have bossed it. Should.be more than 7 ahead.

Bridge93

For a man who I remember having a pretty decent kicking and passing game, Rory Scannell spends an awful lot of time just running into people. If that’s how Munster want to play 12 then De Allende will transform them considerably. Scannell is not very good at it.

He has pre rehearsed Limericks and quips and hens getting them said one way or another .

Munster seem to play most of their rugby in their own 22. They really need to work on their fielding game.

Clegg

Carbery hasn't been given much good ball to work with, but when he's gotten so attacking ball he hasn't used it well. Keeps trying to hit his man on the crash and the attack gets stopped dead on the gain line.

He's got great mileage from the "Jack McGrath has Kevlar in his thumb" take.

He went on about it for a while during the Connacht game too....

Lovely try by Munster. Nice decoy run by Scannell.

Will be disappointed by the first Ulster try from a kick transition, was 3 vs 1 on the touchline.

Thought the Loughman penalty on the lead up to the second try was unlucky, Earls should have stayed wide.

A bit creativity from Munster this week anyway

shootermacg

Earls has done himself no favours in this game.

sydthebeat

Mcclosky has impressed today, continuing how he's been over the last season and a half.

I think he could be firm on farrells mind come 6N

Clegg

Conway off at half time.

Hopefully it isn't an injury.

Bridge93

That is so dumb from earls
