    Still any figure out any consistency on poached. Graham never disengaged from tackle earlier fir me no attempt to roll. Then Watson is leaning on his elbows not supporting his weight.

    F*cking hell. Ditch the maul, lads. It's a mess.

    Ulster actually defended really well for that passage. Great line speed, reset well after the half break and kept their shape through multiple phases. Shame they're so inept with the ball.

    Stop. Going. To. The. Maul.

    It isn't working.

    Ulster's maul. Good lord.

    Would Treadwell make any difference?

    Likely not, wasn't much better against Leinster. They're just missing Henderson big time as a caller and jumper.

    Edinburgh very close to a walk off score there. They'll be disappointed with a 5 point lead going into the half I think.

    Hard to believe this is a semi-final. Ulster are a shambles at the set piece and not up to much with ball in hand either. Edinburgh on the other hand are just throwing ten sheets to the wind when it comes to discipline.

    What were they doing at the end there?!

    Edinburgh spurned another walk in. The difference between the sides is one very soft try of a 5m maul.

    Ulster will take that scoreline at the break no bother. They've a chance to regroup, get their arses kicked in the shed and a decent bench to introduce.

    Jim Hamilton on Premier Sports saying that Ulster have played really well and that the match definitely feels like a semi final.

    I'll have what he's on please.

    Having watched the North vs South game this morning, really eye opening how inaccurate a lot of the passing is in this game... it's night and day from an entertainment point of view.

    Obviously that game is miles ahead in terms of talent/skill but those players have basically had a full season before that - with crowds!

    The pro14 trophy. They have decided to post it to Leinster.

    Cooney subbed off at half time.

    Big call if he's not injured. Not that it's unwarranted tho.

    Alby should have been staring for Munster last season, should be starting for Ulster now.

    Lyttle doesn't kick like someone who's made of chocolate. Burns, on the other hand, kicks like someone who's never kicked before.

    That could be game over. Seen nothing from Ulster in that first half to suggest that'll be able to breach Edinburgh's try line.

    Stockdale absolutely blessed there.

    Missed an easy one on one tackle on Edinburgh's line and they nearly scored a counterattack.

    Ugh. Just mistake after mistake. No need for AB to throw that offload. Just remain patient. There's 30 minutes left. Take a bloody drop goal even. Ulster in full panic mode, slinging crazy passes like there's 5 minutes left.

    Stockdale completely shamed in defence there.

    Edinburgh with a ridiculously soft and stupid penalty. Just keep the bloody ball for 10 phases and see what happens.

    Stockdale can’t tackle. A liability in defence.

    Is this a training match or what?

    Lovely jink from Lyttle but what was that from Edinburgh defence?!

    Game has been completely suididal for last 10 minutes. Just calm the hell down. Edinburgh are 100% there for the taking. Stop giving them simple possession.
