Yep, he also said we should enjoy it, at least until scarceness arrive implying we have no hope. What an English loving gatland.
heck you weren't joking. Apparently it was the poorest Leicester performance in the competition and it was a match entirely untouched by greatness. I wish I hadn't read it now, ruaned my Sunday.
I'll bookmark it and fire it back to writer when we win in Cardiff
I've never been able to work out Stephen Jones. Never could understand if he was English or Welsh. Also just don't know if he's trying to play the Geroge hook style panto villain. From reading his articles you would think so, but then he just seems to take himself to seriously.

He is truly a churlish gobsh*@€ of the grandest order. I can just imagine him quietly weeping as he wrote that report.
Reason no1
We learned how defend 5 metre lineouts.
They had 2 in either half.
We did not compete, set early got amongst them and drove them back.
The lessons of Munster have been learnt.
So long as we keep seeking to improve and work on our weaknesses as well as imposing our strength the sky is the limit.
That has been the biggest difference for me and symbolised what we are about now, adding the layers.
The rest was no shock for me and the other reasons have all been covered but I have to concur that RP can play a bit as well.

Jones is an idiot. Read his piece this morning and was astounded at the curmudgeonly, mean spirited response to what was a gripping game filled with skill and passion.
It's simple. Jones hates anything Irish and anything to do with Irish rugby. He is the most self-opinionated and subjective writer about rugby in the British Isles - he makes Conor George look like a model of fairness and even-handedness. No surprises at all in what he has written.
I started this last night in anticipation . It was obvious from his face when spotted in front of the Ulster coaching team. He had clearly mislaid his rose tinted specs and wanted to look through the wrong end if his binoculars.

According to him, the Irish haven't a clue what they're doing in rugby, but the Welsh clubs are great

After the Leicester game in October he tweeted with some glee something about the importance of their losing bonus point and how everyone would see the importance of it upon completion of the group. I tweeted him last night asking how he now felt about the losing bonus point and that surely it was time to give Ulster some respect. He responded by calling me a 'troll' and blocking me.
He has made some pretty distasteful remarks on Connacht and provided some horrible responses to some of their fans after they questioned him when the so called 'amateur' Connacht nearly defeated Saracens in one of the earlier round of matches. I really don't know how The Sunday Times allow a member of their team to respond to questions and comments, the majority of which are polite and respectful, in the manner he does.
Just send Mr @StephenJones9 a message myself. Not usually one to waste time on people like him, but I think with last nights result he deserves some special treatment. It is pretty disgusting some of what he writes. Saw him on scrum 5 a while back, and he seems to have a real dislike for the IRFU in general. Hope Ulster go all the way, and see what his response to that is.
