Another missed opportunity to get McCann into the XXIII.

Is now really the time for it? If he wasn't trusted before then I don't think the coaches will be playing him with the season on the line.

No Marty Moore this week! Big test for T.O.T,

Massive game for Ulster. I hope they can win and secure the home qf. Sharks coming in very strong. I think Ulster should win, home advantage and they've had a lot of time to rest and focus on this one. C"mon Ulster!

Paul Smeenus · 20-05-2022 03:02PM

Huge peals of thunder, torrential rain on... This is going to be THE CRACK

Dubinusa · 20-05-2022 05:57PM

C'mon Ulster for **** sake!!! Feeling good about this one!

Akrasia · 20-05-2022 07:37PM

Great power from Stuart there

Akrasia · 20-05-2022 07:59PM

The referee in this game is absolutely Killing the sharks

There's breakdown shenanigans, and there's Blatant infringements, but some of the stuff ulster are getting away with here is on another level.

Akrasia · 20-05-2022 08:01PM

Lovely movement for that Try

'Another level.' Really?

Akrasia · 20-05-2022 08:05PM

I just meant the referee is so bad he can't even see the most obvious penalties right in front of his nose. Ulster taking advantage of that as any good team would

Akrasia · 20-05-2022 08:08PM

For example, that penalty should have gone to the sharks for Ulster playing off their feet.

I agree, but I feel referees aren't allowed to make mistakes anymore. Every fan base encounters the worst referee performance every other week now.

Locke_Lamora · 20-05-2022 08:13PM

I love the energy Treadwell has been bringing off the bench the last few months. Really makes his mark in the tackle area, as long as he keeps it legal.

Akrasia · 20-05-2022 08:15PM

I'm a neutral here, I don't want Ulster to lose here.

The sharks will be really annoyed that they didn't get a fair shot when they were pummelling on the Ulster line for 10 minutes and ulster were killing everything and then the first mistake the Sharks made, the ref instantly blew them for it

OldRio · 20-05-2022 08:22PM

Ulster doing their best to implode, yet again.

bilston · 20-05-2022 09:25PM

Great night's entertainment.

McCloskey was immense tonight.

The Sharks are a good side.

Home QF locked in anyway, let's see what happens tomorrow.

Dubinusa · 20-05-2022 09:27PM

Good result!

Dubinusa · 21-05-2022 03:58AM

Out of curiosity, how did O'Toole do in the scrum?

mfceiling · 21-05-2022 04:48AM

He was excellent. The entire front row can take heart from their performance.

From what I saw the Ulster scrum was rock solid.

Very well, he actually had a really good game overall, I still think he needs to drop his tackle height a bit.

There were some really good performances last night...Warwick, O'Toole, Hendy, Timoney, Rea, Cooney, Burns, McCloskey and Hume all had massive games.

The crowd were up for it last night as well which was great to see.

The downside is that yet again we concede late tries dewpite being in a comfortable position. It's a bad habit and we need to snap out of it.

It was a serious concern given the Sharks' strength in the front three, but the Ulster fellas handled them admirably. I was half worried it would be carnage.

Dubinusa · 21-05-2022 12:46PM

I did see the highlights! McCloskey is a beast! Serious unit! He bulldozed his way through for his try. Looked like he was swatting flies.

McElroy for me, is going to be an international. This lad is solid and doesn't appear to have any weaknesses. It's frustrating that the best attacking Irish players have serious deficiencies in their game. Stockdale and Larmour, despite being unreal attacking threats, are also unreal defensive liabilities. Stockdale in particular, from an Ulster standpoint, should not play at fb. He's not as good as Lowry or Addison. He's a wing and I can't ever see him being a top level fb.

I think Ulster at home in a qf will be difficult for any side to beat. Hopefully a sf is in the cards.

McIlroy had a few bad errors last night I thought. Really tidy player though.

Dubinusa · 22-05-2022 04:42PM

Massive interpro qf upcoming. How ye feeling about Munster?

If we turn up we should win.

But you can never trust Ulster to turn up.

Dubinusa · 22-05-2022 07:21PM

I hope Ulster snag the win. They have been inconsistent though.

launish116 · 24-05-2022 02:32PM

Ross Kane has just signed for Ealing Trailfinders

Dubinusa · 24-05-2022 04:34PM

Ealing are becoming a 5th province! Kane is not a good player and if Ealing go to the premiership, they'll go nowhere with Kane.

launish116 · 26-05-2022 02:55PM

Reidy, McGrath, O'Connor Jnr & Kearny all confirmed as leaving. We're extremely light in the prop front!
