    Stockdale needs to buy a ticket to get back in

    Horrible time to concede. That was a replica of the effort against Edinburgh when Burns intercepted the breakaway.

    A winger would be berated for that effort in the AIL.

    How bad has Jordi Murphy been...looks overweight, missed loads of tackles and poor skills

    Stockdale won't be in a green jersey for a while unless something changes.
    Still living of 2018 heroics unfortunately.

    I don’t know if Murphy had successfully made a tackle yet.

    He’s a passenger.

    Scrum is holding up well and that's about it.

    Lowry might be a 10 yet.

    Toulouse making some really bad decisions which is reflected in the scoreboard.

    Great effort here by Ulster. I don't think they'll manage it but they can't be faulted.

    Lowry looks like a man destined for a long time in the green shirt.

    What?

    Anyway McCloskey should have done better but one on one tackles to save tries is the problem

    Ulster haven't even threatened

    Box kicks to be banned

    As much as I hate to say it. He is too small. I know it’s an obvious thing to say but for all his talent he wouldn’t survive at test level.

    A game like today is ideal for him. He’ll get a chance to shine when the ball is turned over

    He's the same height as Kolbe. 10 more kgs and he'd be the same weight.

    Marty Moore must weigh about the same as a Ford Fiesta but his carrying doesn’t seem to benefit from it.

    Kolbe just boshed McCloskey. If that isn't a sign to say game over I don't know what is.

    Cooney taken out as he tries to pass at that maul. I know they're losing anyone but the refereeing is inept

    Nice phase for Dupont there. Prevents Little getting a hit on Huget. Follows it up by running a nice support line. He’s been excellent.

    Clinically Obese forwards with probably the best backline in Europe...

    In fairness to Stu. Kolbe is a freak
    Small and powerful with the quickest feet in world rugby

    I know McCloskey is hurt, but that's still an awful bit of defending against Kolbe. Handed off by a player he's three stone heavier than.

    Ah yeah his elbows in bits, but just the sheer sight of it was unreal
