    Have contacted BBC NI over confusion re red button match at 7.00pm (Freeview EPG says Ospeys vs Ulster!) and they've confirmed that it is Ospreys vs Dragons and not Edinburgh vs Ulster. So it looks like we're relying on internet for coverage.

    I am a dummy on the internet - how do you find this? is it bbc ni sport?

    thanks

    This is all i could find. Sometimes red button in NI is different to rest of uk. Worst case the website should have a link to the stream nearer the time.

    Folks on UAFC are more sure that it is on red button, as it was confirmed at lunchtime there on the BBC. The Ospreys v Dragons game is on BBC2W and usually they would have an alternative red button commentary. It's quite possible that BBCNI have negotiated to get the Ulster game shown on the red button instead, but that this hasn't filtered around the whole office yet...

    From Ulster Facebook..

    Just to confirm - tonight's game against Edinburgh is on! 1930 kick off. On BBC red button and BBC Sport NI website. #SUFTUM!

    Good news. Henderson expected to be fit for QF, and may make an appearance in the Leinster game next week :)

    From the BelTel
    Less than 24 hours after coach Mark Anscombe admitted his concern that the 6ft 6in lock/back row forward could be out for the rest of the season, tests on the player's left foot ligament injury confirmed a sprain rather than a tear.

    That means Henderson – who already has five Ireland caps despite having just turned 21 last month – should be available for Ulster's Heineken Cup quarter-final with Saracens at Twickenham on April 6.

    An Ulster Rugby statement, issued on Wednesday night, read: "Following a scan in Dublin on Sunday, he underwent an x-ray in Belfast yesterday. There it was confirmed that he has suffered soft-tissue damage."

    Currently the ligament is inflamed, hence Henderson's discomfort. But that can be treated and with nothing more serious than soft tissue damage, Ulster anticipate a full recovery ahead of that crucial European clash, now little over two weeks away.

    He may even get some game time against Leinster at the RDS on Easter Saturday evening.

    Red button is not regionalised but is a national service (evidence for this is red button schedule page on BBC website - no regional variations) so if this game is on red button it is the same for all Freeview/Sky/Freesat users throughout the UK.

    Looks like I'm going to miss then then, feckin BBCNI not having this on TV. :mad:

    Not sure TBH. Guess we'll find out at half 7 Red button is easier than stream for me so I'm hoping for that.

    On red button now (channel 301), can hear noise from the stadium, starting in 5 mins.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,059 ✭✭✭Sinbad_NI


    On BBC 2 NI red button for those using sky.

    Just realised Tuohy is playing 6, when was the last time that happened (as in last time he was at 6, not last time he played)? 0-0 11 mins in for anyone not able to watch.


  • Registered Users Posts: 128 ✭✭MolBee


    Ulster veeeery rusty. Wayward passes and dropped balls everywhere.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,708 ✭✭✭ScissorPaperRock


    Ulster making a lot of errors. They were lucky to get away with the chargedown of Payne's attempt at a clearance kick at the try line

    Payne's definitely a bit rusty.


  • Registered Users Posts: 128 ✭✭MolBee


    Marshall's having a bit of a stinker.

    That flippin music during the stoppages:(


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 9,257 ✭✭✭Hagz


    And this player who was ignored for the 6 nations gets the ball, beats one man, and passes to another player who was ignored by Declan Kidney. Ball well secured by the player who finally got his first cap for Ireland after having to wait an age.

    Count yourself lucky, Ulster have been absolutely awful. 3-0 after 28mins.

    McNeillys having a fine night..."And some rain is after coming from somewhere", "Edinburgh playing like a side competing for a playoff place rather than a side fighting for survival"

    Seems like the players aren't the only ones that are a little rusty.

    Oh ffs. Come on Ulster!

    Come on boards.ie rugby posters, give awec some good news! :D

    Using the same clock from the Ulster schools final monday. All the schoolboy errors from Ulster has confused them.

    Sorry! This is how I feel when I try to stream on the RTE website haha. Perhaps someone could provide you with an alternative stream?


  • Registered Users Posts: 128 ✭✭MolBee


    Andrew Trimble never lets us down. All other players really need to get their act together in the 2nd half, too many of our starting HC team not inspiring any confidence...

    Not an easy watch that 1st half... disjointed.
    Muller not coming on for second half. Williams is on.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,616 ✭✭✭✭errlloyd


    Pj misses kickable shot. I guess it was tricky


  • Registered Users Posts: 128 ✭✭MolBee


    Jackson misses another. Still 6-3.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,616 ✭✭✭✭errlloyd


    And another. Slightly harder one. Left touchline 25 out.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 45,433 ✭✭✭✭thomond2006


    If only they could bring on NOC....











    :D

    And a shocking miss from jackson. I dunno, ghosts of murrayfield?


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,059 ✭✭✭Sinbad_NI


    And misses an easy one.


  • Registered Users Posts: 128 ✭✭MolBee


    PJ misses a really easy one. He doesn't like Murrayfield then.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 45,433 ✭✭✭✭thomond2006


    I have Ulster -5 and they're missing kicks. -_-

    Paddy having a mare kicking from tee

    I can see it now. ROG kicks 100% tomorrow, spends 80 minutes 'pinging it' into the corners. Monday's Indo says ROG made a 'mockery' of Kidney's selections. ROG v Sexton debate never to end.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,599 ✭✭✭✭CIARAN_BOYLE


    Paddy having a mare kicking from tee
    Maybe Olding should be given the tee


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,616 ✭✭✭✭errlloyd


    Edinburgh

    Pick and go off a scrum, strong run, short ball and driven over by macinally. Easy conversion

    11-3


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,708 ✭✭✭ScissorPaperRock


    Olding off injured... Ulster looking shallow at centre now


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,616 ✭✭✭✭errlloyd


    Ulster 5m scrum. Intelligent play to get there.
