Ulster have a decent supply of chuckers, though to a man they are what the great unwashed of the seldom mentioned 2BC would call "dodgy dodgy chucker."

Great to see Herrings display on Friday, on my whiteboard he was moving perilously close to, nay inexorably close to the bottom right-hand corner, titled Daves.
NEVER MOVE ON. Years on, I cannot ever watch Ireland with anything but indifference, I continue to wish for the imminent death of Donal Spring, the FIRFUC's executioner of Wee Paddy & Wee Stu, and I hate the FIRFUCs with undiminished passion.

Nigel Owens in charge of the game at the weekend. May suit the home side more.

Any sort of LBP/TBP will be a result in this game. Greater chance of the latter I reckon.

Previewing the LaRochelle game on FB live, so maybe he is considering going into punditry. Probably radio as his face might not fit TV.

The Hond will make his debut. Off the bench probably.

Happy enough with Nigel. He won't get influenced by the crowd and will allow an open game which is in our favour. He certainly won't allow scrums to keep pushing after calling use it unlike another Welsh ref we could mention.

If it becomes an open game on Sunday, La Rochelle will be very hard to stop. They scored 50+ points v Clermont at home in T14......

Could be very entertaining for the neutral, both sides could get TBP

With potentially no AOC, I'd go for the following pack:

McCall
Herring
Herbst
Hendo
Treadwell
Reidy
Henry
Deysel

I wouldn't actually change the backs too much. DC in for Luke would be my personal preference. Although I thought Luke had a good game against Wasps. He could be used as impact.

I have to say that although I am mostly against it, Piutau at fullback and Stockdale on the left wing has seen both players combine together excellently. They are building up a good understanding and it's a combination that has reaped a few rewards.
