As Les would say..... Maybe you have ruminated on this question once or twice or maybe more times, depending on how much amount of time you have spent in solitude or maybe the amount of time you have spent feeling distressed or helpless.Dave wrote: Does Les know?

So our Hookers Best Diddies aren't playing, we've bruised our Charley and hurt our Cubes. They're be no attacking from the back and through the middle isn't an option.
This was never a sexy fixture but right now a Manage a trois with Arlene and Theresa May would be preferable.
Now try and get that image outta yer scone's...

Cave has not played in 7 weeks. Ideally he should get a run of games. The haters will love it if he's rusty.

Re: Connacht v Ulster Sat 23rd Dec 7:35pm KO BBC2/TG4
Giving a player a game every several weeks is hardly ideal especially if reports ar true that said player is also banished from training with the teams and instead exiled. Especially one who in my opinion hasn’t been properly managed back from his injuries of last year.. you’d almost think some want him to fail or at least show rust and therefore justify the treatment being afforded him.. the fact that he is no longer our best 13 is irrelevant when you play a winger who is no longer amongst our starting wingers it smacks of something as does the exiled training...Dave wrote:Cave has not played in 7 weeks.

Ulster have played no one of note away from home yet. In terms of the Westies, beating Munster was a good result but balanced by losing to Cardiff. Losing to Glasgow no disgrace given their league form this year.
Re: Connacht v Ulster Sat 23rd Dec 7:35pm KO BBC2/TG4
In the new year we play Leinster, Edinburgh, Scarlets and Munster away. I'd be happy with two wins, a draw and one defeat from that lot. Aside even from the poor results, the level of performance has been the most concerning.Neill_M wrote:People can interpret the stats as they pleaseDave wrote:The brill brigade will love that.

Playing Scarlets during the 6N so they will be missing a stack of players, a win is very possible there. Could see wins over Scarlets and Edinburgh.Dave wrote:In the new year we play Leinster, Edinburgh, Scarlets and Munster away. I'd be happy with two wins, a draw and one defeat from that lot.

Munster game is an interesting one, last round of the regular season, could be in a situation where the play-off spots are already decided and Ulster were heading back to Limerick the following week in the 1st round of the post season.
Re: Connacht v Ulster Sat 23rd Dec 7:35pm KO BBC2/TG4
We will have no Hendo, Best or Stockdale. Possibly others too. Cooney has been called up to mini camp Joe this week.Neill_M wrote:

Also Gilroy. A player Joe seems to like a bit.

Re: Connacht v Ulster Sat 23rd Dec 7:35pm KO BBC2/TG4
Cockers all that makes sense but I do not accept that he is no longer our best 13, I think it is abundantly clear that we ........least of all FOLK .............. have any real idea who is our best 13, Louis doesn't like the position, Tommy is not a 13, No Hands Luke was 2 years ago but had a dreadful run of matches before the mysterious injury and on that I think he may well have gone to Switzerland for a double hand transplant and all the Toblerone he can squirrel. Charless might be but strangely FOLK has never tried it, Stockcube likes 13, just never gets played there.Cockatrice wrote:Giving a player a game every several weeks is hardly ideal especially if reports ar true that said player is also banished from training with the teams and instead exiled.

So who is our best 13? At this stage of the season, like KISS, I haven't a fuc'king Lulu.
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.
