True :P Im sure Jackass is currently sobbing at the fact that Ulster are allowed use depth and decoy runners while Leinster go on with the whole lets go flat idea.

Oh and the commentating will get worse next year when they show GP games that ll be a great laugh. Wheres Emmet Byrne he's there only pundit who i respect

It may mean that they have to up their game for the magners league matches though.They cant use the same ****e for the premiership,it wont be tolerated.

Backs coach at least unless Gaffney is saving his best plays for Ireland :pac:

If what Gaffney is trying to achieve works,then its lethal,but it is very hard to impliment.
It would also mean that as many Leinster players that can possibly be in the Ireland backline are in it because its a hard style to play if your not doing it week in and out.

Its hardly working for them and if anything its show that we dont poses the sort of players needed for that style

Jackz

cruiserweight

Bonus point for Ulster now

A-Train

Bonus point in the bag for Ulster nothing more then they deserve I would say. Some more good play.

Stev_o

Lovely stuff hopefully Ulster will keep playing

crisco10

and pucceriello and mccullough both get sin binned for punching instead of watchin the try unfold..29-6 :eek:

crisco10

jesus, ulster nearly get another one. if someone could have gotten to paddy wallaces shoulder there it was try time...

As it is, Humps scores another 3. 32 - 6 to ulster

Stev_o

Thats great thinking turning down a scrum and running for it instead.

Ulster are brilliant tonight. Is it just me or have the officials missed a rake of forward passes?

barnesd

Absolutely unreal. Delighted for Ulster.

crisco10

hmm hopefully that try isnt a sign of ulster tiring...

Lovely play by Humphs real class

A-Train

Looks like a great try.... and it is!

crisco10

trimble try. ulster 37. munster 11. with conversion attempt to come. mental.

Another gorgeous dink from humps

Stev_o

Humph's strike again at Thomond to smash some records first with Leicester and now with Ulster

A-Train

Great result for Ulster, they played some great rugby, really impressed with Humphs and Cave.

crisco10

full time. 37 -11.

Munster were v. poor. Literally couldnt hold onto the ball.
Ulsters last try summed it up:

Quinlan knocks on 3 yards out from the ulster line, boss hacks it down the pitch. Fogarty fields and knocks on straight to mccrae who kicks. Hurley carries it over his own line giving ulster the 5yd scrum that ultimately led to humps chip thru for Trimble. 3 school boy errors in a row from a pro outfit.

Taking nothing away from ulster, they were huge all over the pitch. made space at will...

Great stuff from Ulster. Massively impressed with the pack. That backrow is a joy to behold. Humphreys had a superb game. Top drawer kicking and first class marshalling. The fluidity of the Ulster backline, the way they ran from depth and at lovely angles, presenting multiple options to the ball carrier. Lovely stuff. Kudos to the red-hand.

As for Munster, the worst display I've seen from a Munster team in Thomond for a long, long time. Have to say though that was a result that was brewing. I've been exceptionally concerned about Munster's form over the last four/five games...They've taken to forcing things (a decidedly un-Munster trait), and their composure appears shot to pieces.

I'm hoping its just a mid-season slump, but Munster were duffed up all over the park, with few players putting their hands up. Warwick is in a rich vein of form and the mid field committed as always..but error rate huge, horrendous discipline and very little ingenuity. As a Munster man, some worrying signs...

Stev_o

Hopefully these Ulster guys are rewarded by the Irish Management for showing such good form over the past few matches they are really putting up their hands

Nukem

Hehe - Munster got screw'd. How do you fix the Munster team now???????
28 point hammering and you lose two lead players through injury.......................great nights work!
