Quiz: where will he play?
But probably not given that Craig, Charlie and Cube are likely to form the back 3.

La Rochelle -1 is like printing money.Neill_M wrote:Bookies have Ulster at +1 on the even money punt. The home side would be around -3 if the sides were considered to be a similar level, so they have the French lads as slight favourites.
All depends on the attitude of La Rochelle on the day (classic cliché). If they are in the mood....mon dieu!

Looks set to lash on Saturday. Does that help us or not? I can't remember.
I have my own tv channel, what have you got?
Re: Stade Ferrero Rocher - Home
Lads on the podcast says it helps us.

They may not play as open as usual and instead focus on using their giant pack full of Kiwis and Fijians.......Dave wrote:Looks set to lash on Saturday. Does that help us or not? I can't remember.

Can't see a side based on the West Atlantic Coast of France not being used to the wind and Rain. It is not exactly the Riveria.

Re: Stade Ferrero Rocher - Home
Ok let's play a game called.how could Ulster win this game?
It's clear that we have been targeting this match as we have been holding back for the last number of weeks.
In Best, Hendy CP, CL, Stockdale and Cooney we have at least a spine of a side of class performers.
All of them will need to up their game and bring the rest up to a level and intensity to compete with these guys.
They will need to be off their game in about a 20% performance swing
Some may well not be too used to the hostile atmosphere and conditions the Kingspan can generate
Every side is capable of producing a one off performance.
Its the quality sides that back it up and we can't do that.
We can assume that our management know that too and have put our eggs in one basket.
I struggle to explain why else we have been so bad of late.
I hope the reality isn't proven that we are actually that bad.

We have a band, Q radio, twunts in onesies, an anthem played 7 times per night in G.A.Y.
We have an artisan food village, a selfie competition, half time kicking balls over posts
Nothing hostile about UR
Need the various supporters clubs to step up to the mark this weekend. Organise their various troops and get guldering

They could have a man red-carded in the 1st quarter.
