Alternatively in the back row - there may be a rare sighting of Jean Deysel.
They have also said Tommy is fit to play

Interesting TB's comeback was mentioned in the BBC article, but not in this week's injury report on the UR site.

Timoney's grandparents are from Ulster. I consider him an ulster player rescued from a poor setup down south.

So does he qualify as a Nordiebastid?
He's been impressive and it's great to see him move to Lisburn.

Lisburn or Greater Lisburn to include Dundonald and Spanners?

He has been excellent, great pace as a backrow, shows you don't need to be like Fat Nick or Billy Vunibastard to make yards. He also tackles above his weight. A well deserving case for a contract. :thumleft:

For those dreading Deysel appearing, he has one stat in his favour, not enormous but 10 turnovers in 8 games.

Wonder how Bad Back Black is diddlin'?

If Ulster lose on Friday night to Edinburgh they will not qualify for the top six and hence Heiney. This could do more to get rid of Logan than any committee.

This should have been an easy season for us - only playing Glasgow at home, Cheetahs at home and Ospreys at home. Didn't consider however, a loss to Zebre or being stuffed at Galway.

Almost but not quite right Twiggy. There is a 7th SDC place. There will be a playoff between 4th in the Weak section and given Cheetahs in top 3, 5th in the Strong section.

Given the points UR have accumulated it will be a home game, currently against Connacht but I’d bet on them getting ahead of Caaaadiff. So win that or be in Parker Pen is the worst case scenario. However I just want to remind the class that Mexico and Scaaaaalets play home and away in the next few rounds. If one loses both games the loser will be dragged right back to fighting range of Ulster and Embra.

If asked to wager in UR making the top 2 I’d happily put Terry’s life in it.

I think we will be in the SDC and I think we’ll win on Friday night, however Cockers has them scrapping for ever game, it’ll be a balltightener and a good test of young M’Phillips.
