    McCloskey concussed, following RTP.

    Addison out for rest of the season, back surgery.

    That's terrible news for Addison. Luckless since the New Year.

    McCloskey missing for Edinburgh will be a big loss!

    Bit harsh on reidy, personally thought Murphy was the worst backrow last week. Suprised rea isn't given a chance seeing as how bad the lineout was. Timoney won't improve that much.

    The most significant part of this selection is the choice of captain IMO.

    Given Herring is in the team, I think this points quite strongly to the fact that Hendy will be Ulster skipper post Rory.

    Pyrgos is a bag of shíte, very suprising to see Embra boot Kennedy and retain him. Must be an SRU directive.

    van der Walt having a bit of an off night is good news for Ulster, big player for Edinburgh when he's playing well.

    Had a feeling that 10-0 at halftime wasn’t going to cut it and that we’d regret missing chances. Big second half now, Edinburgh we’ll be coming out hard and fast.

    Baloucoune is the breakout player of the year in any of the provinces for me. So much potential.

    Didn’t someone reputable post a rumour that Lyttle might not be here next season?? Really hope it’s not true, cause he’s incredible - fantastic step, great at wriggling out of contact, decent in the air, and has a good kicking game.
