This just feels terrible. I'm actually only hoping they don't score more than 50. I'm almost certain that they will though.

Re: Bulls v Ulster Sat Oct 5 KO 3pm UK Time
The back line is about as strong as available.This is the new reality. Never say die spirit and fight is what I'm looking for. And bottle from the cubs and newbies. Hendo needs to lead from the front and assume is THead lock as Barrett will need it.
A huge Saffa pack at altitude means we can't run them about the park- but that backline is top class also. Le Roux, Arendse, Moodie etc. It will be ugly- it really is about guts and keeping going regardless of the score. Bulls will want to post a cricket score as top 2 is essential this year with a very competitive top 10 in the league. For me, 8th will be a triumph.
So many young cubs to come of age early. Good luck Charlie Irvine and McCormick. It shows the EI nonsense for what it is.

I wonder and hope that Murphy has given them a bit of a game plan to counteract their power, e.g. no engagement at mauls, attempt to tackle the catcher etc...
Reffel will need to have a massive game chop tackling behind the gainline and we will have to be smart all over the park. If we try to go toe to toe we will be smashed.

Maybe our result wasn't so bad last week after all. Edinburgh over 40 odd down at h/t.

The handicap for that game was a ludicrous minus 7.HammerTime wrote: ↑Sat Oct 05, 2024 1:24 pm Maybe our result wasn't so bad last week after all. Edinburgh over 40 odd down at h/t.

Let's be honest- avoid an arm wrestle and go for 4 tries- forget the rest.
Didn't realise I played with Barretts da at the Model. Brian was a criminally ignored but superb loosehead

Frightening power in that bulls scrum

Re: Bulls v Ulster Sat Oct 5 KO 3pm UK Time
The scrum is being obliterated as badly as ive ever seen. Just gotta try avoid scrums at all costs.
NUCIFORA IS A BELLEND
Re: Bulls v Ulster Sat Oct 5 KO 3pm UK Time

Tbf our 4th choice hooker, third choice TH 2nd choice LH and a 21 yo 16 stone lock Vs a international front 5. No surprise really.
Tactically not sure why we went for it. Threw these guys to the lions- hardly good management. We should've went with our best front 5 and feck Connacht. Lads being embarrassed is not good coaching

Some good fight being shown but we've brought a knife to a gun fight. Stockdale looking superb going forward.

Scrum aside this is a much better performance than I expected. Stockdale, Henderson, carson and mcnabney are all doing well
