Ulster Team Talk Thread IV... Go On My Henderson...

Yep its unwatchable, hopefully sorted soon, well especially for tomorrow, from my perspective.

Montpellier are offside every phase

no issues with premier sports

Scott Wilson cannot scrum.

Zac Ward was pretty dreadful. Most where, but his performance was error after error.

no chance he will ever get international caps.

Games are won on momentum and momentum ended with the Wards.

Agreed on defence ...very poor indeed...no attack can offset that weak a vital element of the game

Chaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaampions Cup !!!

(for Connacht)

the only not that good part is meeting Montpellier machine again or this
kind of (Toulouse/Bordeaux). But we want these games don't we? !

Well I'm also wondering whether we have enough cover on the wing. That isn't the first time Zac Ward has shat the bed in a big game.

Very disappointing tonight from Ulster. To focus solely on the Challenge Cup and then deliver that performance is hugely disappointing. Save a few moments of magic from Izzy, Lowry and Balacoune that was an absolute disaster tonight. We were miles of Montpellier to the point were you have to question how we didn't see it coming. Hindsight tells us we focused on the wrong competition. Now we have no Champions Cup next season. Next year I suggest we throw the Challenge Cup and throw everything we have at the URC.

I still think we've progressed this year, but the end result isn't good enough. I standby this coaching team, but they, and the players, need to deliver next season.

He was dreadful unfortunately, also happened when he played for Ireland ‘A’, he literally couldn’t catch simple passes that night.

not good enough.

Murphy will be out of a job in 12 months time if he doesn’t improve things. He rotates far, far too often, always has. Montpelier has played a similar side for about 5 matches in a row, yet Murphy can’t makes about 6/7/8 changes every week.

Subbing off Henderson around 55/60 minutes every match also doesn’t help him.

Completely agree, there's a time and place and the day of a major loss isn't it. To the credit of the Ulster fans here they have largely ignored these posts I wouldn't have been as restrained were it the other way around.

Hard luck lads, remember being there is part of success, no-one else had the chance, you earned the right to be there and came out the wrong side. Onwards and upwards.

About Ulster, I don't get why you sacrificed Glasgow home game which was very winnable, even weakened, you were 1 last pass/catch to win it in the final minute.

Why did your coach did that knowing Montpellier will be so hard to beat..

25% chance of trophy (% from bookies) mattered more than the 70% chance of Euro Cup next year+Play-off?

Huge gamble that he did….
