THIS WEEK’S GUEST
FULL TIME TAKES
Conor Cronin
Ulster exploited our D in the first 20 and that was very significant.
A game like this shouldn’t be decided by an interpretation of the laws, or lack thereof, but I really feel it was today, players on or off their feet, when use it is called or not, whether or not a tackler is held, they are big moments and weren’t decided by the players.
That said, the wrong pass at the wrong time at the end, not looking for the drop goal, there are problems to be fixed
Rich Mifsud
Well can’t say we didn’t deserve that tbh and the stupid fucking ending simply drew a line under that performance. Fair fucks to Ulster putting in a huge shift on D but our game management and decision making left a lot to be desired.
All the right decision making and game management in similar conditions at LAR went to rat shit (admittedly with different personnel)
To be honest I actually expected more of these types of performances given the changes in systems brought in by Nienaber. Not to have seen more is to our credit
Kevin Kelehan
Fair play to Ulster closing it out, they took the squad rotation handicap perfectly, James Ryan’s absence once again fatal for Leinster in a tight game
Sean Michaels
Ulster showed greater desire in awful conditions. Thought some of our decision making on field was questionable. We seemed intent on giving possession away with some poor box kicking, and kicking out of hand, when it seemed more logical to keep it tight and build momentum. Unfortunately, whilst Mr Murphy was not too kind to Leinster he was not the reason we lost. Apart from the LR game I think we have been generally poor and have had a couple of fortunate results which has tended to paper over the cracks
Cian Ormond
Beaten by the better team, no complaints there. The chances to win were available and they were missed. Still top of the table though, the clash with Benetton is more interesting now.
Colin McConaghie (Ulster fan)
Brilliant! Loved every minute 😁 we really exploited the space out wide and Billy Burns was absolutely superb
