[2013/14 Pro12] Round 21

Not really sure what other option he has in relation to the props with the amount of injuries in that area.

Agree about Andrew. Payne should be at 15 with Cave starting at 13. I can't help but think there has been some IRFU interference in that area with wanting to see Payne at 13 more.

Macklin ahead of Warwick would have been the really obvious call.

For the IRFU to intervene in a game of this size would be shameful and I would expect their involvement to be leak onto the net somewhere. Mindyou, only just woken up, so maybe it has...

I'm not confident - but still wish I was going to be there.
 
Munster seem to be following the logic that as wingers score the most tries, a back line made up exclusively of wingers will be unstoppable. Bold move.

Isn't Warwick primarily a loosehead? Wouldn't it be more logical to have the lesser experienced prop in his preferred position with Court moving over to the tighthead?

Munster are 1-15 wingers yet Schmidt still picks Kearney at wing.
Boooo #deathtothedarklord

He's only played loosehead at a professional level, I'm fairly sure of that. Don't know his AIL record. But yeah - Court could have gone there - pretty sure Black could have slotted in - Warwick might just be the least experienced tighthead in the squad, yet here we are...

There must be something in training we don't see. Some kind of potential since he is young as well. Looking forward to a good game though. I enjoy Ulster's expansive style when they click and I'd like Leinster to do the same.

In fairness Johne is playing 13 a lot lately and Hurley is a project on going. Cornea has been in super form too lately and well the back 3 really excites me.
This could be 1 fun game

I've been really impressed with his vision.


Ha ha ha. Boom boom!
 
Feic you've been AWOL a while but if you do that **** again I can have you back to scrapping it out with the seagulls for dropped chips on the streets of Bray.

God I'd love a chipper actually.

Leinster scrum is looking well.
 
Ulster not in it at the mo mo.

Dodgey bit of tackling on Toner there from Herring and Court. Someone could walk here...

Well, the crowd isn't very happy. But seriously, why the hell do you put yourself at the mercy of the ref with tackles like that?
 
Thought that was a yellow myself but quite stupid.

Not easy being an Ulster fan I'm sure recently.
 
Didn't help Toner is the length and bends like one of them pool noodles.

Not really no.

Turned off, tuning out, thinking ahead to next season... or maybe the season after.
 
All of this is true, but I don't think Ulster are doing themselves any favors at the moment.


Also, their attitude to Sir during the Williams-Muller talking to was very poor.
 
Ulster's recent practice with only 14 men on defense is paying off.

Edit: Definitely a high tackle from Kearney but think Jackson did score.
