Looks cold.

bilston · 10-12-2017 2:04pm

I'm not certain this game is lasting 80 minutes.

bilston · 10-12-2017 2:05pm

I'd have thought these conditions will be new to Lealifilano

10-12-2017 2:08pm

This should be entertainingly bleak.

connemara man · 10-12-2017 2:08pm

Looks a wee bit cold there

MJohnston · 10-12-2017 2:10pm

Broadcaster?

Scythica · 10-12-2017 2:10pm

How has Les managed to get one of those hats, can't find one for love nor money anywhere!

Bit of a colour clash there with the kits

Just your regular Ulster match then.

Scythica · 10-12-2017 2:18pm

The Ulster boys making all the noiseeeeee

bilston · 10-12-2017 2:20pm

Jaysus that would have been the try of the millenium.

Bazzo · 10-12-2017 2:21pm

Snow just looks like it's getting heavier and heavier.

ongarite · 10-12-2017 2:23pm

Hard to see ball on TV once it on the ground.
If it keeps up till HT when players are off the pitch it could be called off.

LuckyGent88 · 10-12-2017 2:23pm

Surely no way this match gets finished. It's getting worse and worse

I think that's the problem...half time...that said if the pitch doesn't freeze up (wgich it shouldn't while its snowing) and the visibility isn't too bad then it may be ok.

Sephiral · 10-12-2017 2:26pm

Just turned on the TV hungover. Thought it needed tuning like in the old days.

There will be a small army of ground staff on the field at half time trying to keep the game viable.

awec · 10-12-2017 2:28pm

Seems to be getting a bit lighter again.

ongarite · 10-12-2017 2:29pm

The pitch is nearly fully covered, another 20 mins like this and the game is off IMO.

Scythica · 10-12-2017 2:30pm

GET INNNNNN

Diabhal Beag · 10-12-2017 2:31pm

No surprises that ex-Sportsground man John Cooney has absolute made bits of Quins in the snow

bilston · 10-12-2017 2:31pm

Feck knows what happened but I think Stockdale just scored a try!

awec · 10-12-2017 2:32pm

I think there was a knock on in there at one point

Sephiral · 10-12-2017 2:32pm

Stockdale doing his thing.

How on earth is the TMO going to figure anything out when nothing can be seen!

Diabhal Beag · 10-12-2017 2:33pm

The sweeping just as Quins were returning the kick into their 22

vienne86 · 10-12-2017 2:33pm

Good man Cooney.

Eh.....where are the lines????

Scythica · 10-12-2017 2:34pm

Did anyone see what happened between McCloskey and Brown?

matthew8 · 10-12-2017 2:34pm

Good call avoiding the TMO, can't be prolonging the game and the time for the snow to get on the pitch.

bilston · 10-12-2017 2:35pm

Ah Christian

10-12-2017 2:37pm

Is it going to snow in Dublin?

Apparently not.

Is it snowing in Bath?

If this game lasts 60 minutes the result stands

Peregrine · 10-12-2017 2:40pm

What .....a......kick! Harlequins don't deserve anything here.

Sephiral · 10-12-2017 2:49pm

Great maul defence.

Shouldn't it have been half time when possession changed hands for the penalty after the 40th minute there?

Stheno · 10-12-2017 2:50pm

Yep

Irish Times have live commentary

mfceiling · 10-12-2017 2:50pm

Fcuk sake Cooney. Clock is red so send it 40 metres in to the stand...not a box kick to hand back advantage. Good job they fecked up the line out.
Ulster make life awful hard for themselves at times.

CIARAN_BOYLE · 10-12-2017 2:51pm

I've never seen some of those players move as fast as they did there running for the tunnel

mfceiling · 10-12-2017 2:53pm

Just a point to remember...even with all the snow, rain, poor conditions under foot, inability to see the lines, wet ball and difficulties securing possession off set piece plays - Mike Brown is still a knob.

Scythica · 10-12-2017 2:53pm

Gutted that LAR-Wasps is on at the same time, just seen the score. Looks like a belter!

Thinking the same.......have it recording to watch instead of Saracens v Clermont.

CIARAN_BOYLE · 10-12-2017 2:59pm

You know i would have thought there would be a much bigger group of people clearing off the snow. 4 people with brushes doesn't really cut it does it.

errlloyd · 10-12-2017 3:00pm

Yeah, I'm gonna watch it between games. Hope bt don't spoil it all.

They don't seem too bothered by it, just clearing the lines.

Diabhal Beag · 10-12-2017 3:08pm

Can't remember the last time I saw a HIA caused an arse to head collision

Scythica · 10-12-2017 3:08pm

Wish they'd stop staying the la Rochelle score

Bazzo · 10-12-2017 3:08pm

Tsk tsk, Ugo Monye finding it hard to compose himself because poor Danny Care took a serious arse to the face :pac:
