Ulster Cardiff

Post by Gerald the Mole »

Okay 6 nations distraction over and back to the PRO14, a must win game (they all are now) I fully expect to see BEST HENDERSON and STOCKDALE playing , Dublin owe us that at least. You can rest when your dead my old granny used to say.

Once more I concur Ger.................but how likely it is, well I have my doubts.
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.

Probably a review meeting of 6 Nations next Monday.

Hendo had played one full game and 2 halfs in 5 weeks. He has no European games coming up. Expect him on the bench at least.

It is so pleasing to see Jacob progressing so well and adapting to international rugby so quickly. With the World Cup just round the corner and Ireland summer tour, autumn internationals and six nations we will have to get used to Ulster playing without him, and rightly so. The same goes for Rory and Hendo, so I trust Ulster are planing for this. We will be short of wingers next season with Tommy and Charles gone, Andy might as well be and Lyttle injury prone.

Gilroy has been very unlucky this season with injuries but when he has played I think he's back to his best.

Assume Rorys minutes are being heavily managed in the run up to the RWC
Dont want to be facing anyone with Cronin at the helm

It’s going to be a hide behind the sofa run it for the rest of the season with one win out of 5 probably realistic- maybe 2 at a push if Rory and Co are back and integrated.

Cardiff away - lose
Edinburgh away - lose
Ospreys home - win
Glasgow home - lose probably
Munster away - hammered off the park.

With a run of four games in four weeks to finish the season, as well as the presence of Rob Herring, it seems it would be prudent to give Best at least another week to recover from his international exertions.

Seems he might get a rest anyway.
