Ulster vs. Serge’s Beauties

[Mebawsa Ritchie]

On nowsmileys/biggrin.gif

[Woggas]

Harryordinary took a knock in the warm up and was walking gingerly onto the field at the start, will be interesting to see if he lasts

[Upfront_1979]

Harry injured in warm up, looks a little shaky.

[Upfront_1979]

Dan touchy buried a biarritz player. Still down

[Woggas]

that looks nasty

[NeilBestisalegend]

gwan tuohy

[Mebawsa Ritchie]

Bosch got bosched.

[Upfront_1979]

He's gone

[Tobyglen]

How the hell is he being left on, he was knocked sparked out. One of these days a guy will get a second bang and it will be good night Vienna.

About time.

[Woggas]

knee right above the ear...he has to go off

[NeilBestisalegend]

ferris looks a bit fired up

[Woggas]

ferris looks a bit fired up

Should we start a book as to when he'll go off injured?

[Mebawsa Ritchie]

ferris looks a bit fired up

Very. Hope he stays fit.

[NeilBestisalegend]

knowing ferris this will probably be his last game in January

[cornerboy]

Ulster have made zero tackles in the 1st 10 mins

[Woggas]

Lund yellow carded, some beard though

[cornerboy]

This is there for Ulaidh. French not over keen.

[Upfront_1979]

Touhy looks a good option for 6 nations

[Tobyglen]

Nigel Owens doing well against Biarittz.

[Upfront_1979]

Ulster dominant but no score to show for it.

[RichardP]

There you go. Ulster dominate opening qrtr against a team with a man binned and are behind 0-3. FFS

[cornerboy]

Wouldnt kich her out for chewing gum

[Woggas]

Blanco you fat f**k

[hooke]

thats a ten point wind at least expect Ulster to claw that back, but they look jittery

[Old Dog]

Nigel Owens doing well against Biarittz.


Abysmal half - the Todgers must have had 80% of the ball and the territory but they are so devoid of creativity that they couldn't generate a fart in a bean factory. Theonly redeeming feature is that the assinineMark Robson isn't commentating.


If Tyrone Howe doesn't makeNigel MoM afterthat Cyclopean performance, then he's an even thicker Todger than I imagined him to be.

[dropkick]

Ulster should take advantage of the wind and win this one.
The rain could make it tricky though.

[Munsterboy]

Any link lads?

[Tobyglen]

Will the French have the stomach for this one?

[sewa]

Spot on OD. 0 marks for converting territory and possession into points

[Paulie Walnuts]

Any link lads?

Ulster are gash, they just a big bosh team. If they do manage to squeeze through this game everyone would love to draw them.

This has been the weakest pool by a long ways this year. Huge kick coming up here for Humphreys.

[RichardP]

Nigel loves Irishmen

[sewa]

The Piennar at 9 experiment is killing them

[Tobyglen]

Great kick.

[Tobyglen]

The Piennar at 9 experiment is killing them
Don't know if it really matters, they just don't offload and are badly coached.

[sewa]

Have they attacked down Balshaws side even once? He is a liability

[sewa]

Oh dear - another scoring chance wasted

[The Outlaw]

Have they attacked down Balshaws side
even once? He is a liability

Playing very well is Balshaw.

[RichardP]

as usual no creativity at all

[sewa]

Have they attacked down Balshaws side
even once? He is a liability




Playing very well is Balshaw.


Yeah but his defensive lapses are legendary. He hasnt been tested in defense once. They aint going to get the chance now though

[Tobyglen]

There doing their best to lose this. They should be blitzing this useless Biarritz team.

[The Outlaw]

you cant create anything with a pack that cant offload. they
have good backs

[Tobyglen]

Owens is gifting them this one.

[Woggas]

The conditions don't look that conducive to creative rugby.

[sewa]

Nigel's the gift that just keeps on giving

[Tobyglen]

Do you watch the game at all?smileys/c&#111;nfused.gif He's after saving them twice from tries.

[cornerboy]

Ulster are dominating possession so the defending team are more likely to offend in fairness.

[lactose intolerant]

what's going on then??

[Tobyglen]

Traille is some outhalfsmileys/lol.gif.

[Woggas]

super kick from piennar

[cornerboy]

20 mins left. 6-6 Ulaidh playing with a gale

[The Outlaw]

Jesus how have Ulster not scored a try yet. 80 percent
posession. Tyrone Howe must be Tony Wards brother. The
commentary is like reading one of Wards articles

[Tobyglen]

Best throwing a good few bricks now.

[cornerboy]

Ulster making a balls of this

[lactose intolerant]

cheers cornerboy

[Woggas]

Ulster are mangling their scoring opportunities

[cornerboy]

Brainless from the 8

[sewa]

Have Ulster run out of gas?

[cornerboy]

good defence

[Tobyglen]

Ulster lock just flopped on the ball there, very lucky not to be penalised.
Huge 10 mins for Ulster rugby, win and they probably get a home Q-final.

[sewa]

Botha gonefor a critical scrum

[sewa]

Fitzpatrick screwed first scrum

[Tobyglen]

Can't see how they can win from here.

With Nigel Owens on the pitch anything is possible.

[sewa]

Ulster hanging on by their fingernails

[RichardP]

You're right Sewa, Ulster look knackered

[Tobyglen]

This reminds me of the Quins-Leinster game in 2009.

[sewa]

Best gone. Big, big trouble for Ulster scrum

[sewa]

Rope a dope. Ulster blew themselves out. Nigel uses the getout of jail free optiion

[Tobyglen]

Big scrum now, they should get this ball out quickly.

Owens smileys/lol.gif

[The Outlaw]

Owens is riding BO.

[RichardP]

Ulster should send Nigel a gift in return for that scrum decision

[sewa]

Holy Nigelsmileys/shock.gif

[RED 49]

Owens gifts em a chance

[Munsterboy]

About time. I thought sealing off was supposed to be illegal.

[sewa]

What a kick

[cornerboy]

kick to win it.


got it you know

[RED 49]

Owens gifts em a chance Which they
take pen 9-6 to ulster

[skinnyryan]

Hey humpty good onya

[Tobyglen]

This reminds me of the Quins-Leinster game in 2009.

Like I said! Always felt like Owens was gonna give them a gift. Good result for Munster, Ulster are desperate and if we win tomorrow we could draw them.

[sewa]

Nigel Ulsters MOTM by a mile

[cornerboy]

Go on the North, way to go.

[The Outlaw]

Owens is an absolute disgrace as a referee.

Well done to Ulster though.

[Tobyglen]

Owens is a gas man, if anyone had money on Ulster then they're blessed.

[RichardP]

Gripping contest; s**te rugby, myopic refereeing, well done Ulster.

[Tobyglen]

Owens is an absolute disgrace as a referee.



Well done to Ulster though.
Serge Blanco is going to have murder over this one.

[sewa]

Both sides now going through surely?

[Woggas]

Tyrone HoweDidYouBecomeALion has to be one of the worst co commentators

[lactose intolerant]

This reminds me of the Quins-Leinster game in 2009.

class, we could probably play them in Fitzgerald Stadium because i hear the GAA don't really own it

Much rather to go there than some place like San Sebastien. Fair play to Humph óg.

Only 1 Team going through from this group smileys/lol.gif

[Tobyglen]

I'm glad Ulster are gone through because Biariitz play awful stuff.

If we win tomorrow then Leinster, Toulouse are the teams to avoid.

Saints away in Milton Keynes and Ulster away would be fine. Hopefully Scarlets will do a number on Leicester now.

[The Outlaw]

Both sides now going through surely?


Ulster will get 22 points so will got through anyway as one fo
the top 2 losers

Not sure Leicester are a team to worry about anymore.
Well back on previous teams in my view. Nothing in that

They scored ten last week against Agen. They will beat Bath at home with a BP. If Ulster beat Aironi away even with a BP, they would be runners-up as BO have a better head-to-head.

True, Wasps could stun Toulouse and beat them at Adams park though.

He has plenty of practise sucking stuff up judging by the size of the fat f**ker

[munster cat]

Well done to Ulster. Biarritz came over to be negative and paid the price. That fella Eric Lund must be the laziest f**ker to gracea Rugby ground. He did damn all but guard rucks and get in the way.Blanco must be some eejit to be paying him 200 - 300,000 euro a year to sun himself down there. Biarritz dont deserve to get into the Q/Fs because they are so negative.

[banjaxed]

!jesus they are bad in the oppostions 22, they have no organisation to pick and go and dont seem to have the belief to muscle it out and cross the gain line. The link to backs only seem fluid when open play. In saying that stoked for them to be in contol of their own destination. I thought ref had a good game but think i might have been blinkered drinking with BO fans ha ha...

Jealousy lads. I've seen many a
worse performance from Munster in the Hcup. You've
also some cheak to blame the ref. After all you've been
playing refs and relying on pentalties since dear knows
when.

I think you'll find almost everyone on here are glad Ulster won but even the most myopic of Ulster fans couldn't deny that Owens gifted Ulster the game. Ulster winning is good for the Magners league &amp; the Irish team. To become contenders Ulster needed to deny Biarritz the bonus point, they have been gifted the group but haven't taken advantage which is a shame.

[The Outlaw]

Both sides
now going through surely? Ulster will get 22
points so will got through anyway as one fo the top 2
losers


Thats my reading of it too


Ulster will win the group now
border=0 smileys/cool.gif BOPB will not
score 4 tries so will only have 21 pts and will lose out
to ST/Wasps and the RU in the Scarlets/USAP/Tigers
for the 2nd RU spot


They scored ten last week against Agen. They will
beat Bath at home with a BP. If Ulster beat Aironi
away even with a BP, they would be runners-up as BO
have a better head-to-head.
Granted they scored 10 tries against Agen,
Connacht would have scored 20 tries against Agen
that day.
The HC is different. Bath will not keel over even
though they have nothing to play for.
There is no way BO will score 4 tries.
So it is irrelevant the head to head with Ulster as
Ulster (22pts) will have more points than BO (21pts)
smileys/lol.gif

Bath are absolutely s**te.
So Bath are absolutely s**te only managed to notch
up
56 pts today
BOPB are a limited side, so you are telling me on the
basis that BOPB scored 10 tries against an
uninteresed/weakend Agen weeks ago. there is bound
to be a BOPB try fest despite them only scoring 20 or
so tries in 15 previous T14 matches this season and
12 Tries in 5 HC games this season (and try less
today)
THERE IS NO WAY BOPB WILL SCORE 4 TRIES NEXT
WEEKEND


Prepared to put a wager on that with myself?
Yes I am perhaps, the loser never posts on MF again
and I know who will still be posting

How about 50 quid I'm right and if either party
welches on
the bet - its a lifetime ban for the offender.

No, I am betting €50 you are right smileys/lol.gif
Will not catch me out with your semantics. I will agree
to €50 to the charity of the winners choice.
My bet BOPB will not score 4 tries next weekend
The Outlaw BOPB will score more than 3 tries

You're on so.

[hooke]

It was a brutal game to watch, delighted for Ulster, but there not through yet even with 5 points against Arioni a few things need to go their way.

[Old Dog]

Probably Nigel's' worst performance since he single-handedly beat France in Croke Park to set up Ireland's grand slam.

Why would we be jealous? What did we do to Toulon in TP vis a vis what did you do against BOPB for instance? We don't envy anyone who is better nor deny it when they beat us. You lot tonked us down in TP a couple of years ago, Leinster have done us down 5 times on the trot. Good for both of you. We know where we have to be to get where the top team in Ireland is now and it ain't Ulster for sure. Get away with that gibbersih.

[Tobyglen]

Connacht would get out that group. Possibly the weakest group there has ever been in the history of the Heineken cup.

[bootlace]

I actually thought that the ref let the BO off with a lot,just after the start of the second half he could have and probably should have sin binned a second french player for repeat infingements,there was also the occasion when Ulster were on the french line only to knock on, there was more than one french infringement in that series of phases,the french front row were also unable or unwilling to bind on properly at scrum, a bit like most of the Current Munster tightheads at the mo,So instead of just coming out with the usual bile and bitterness,could someone please identify at what time Owens was soft on the Ulster team,in comparison with the BO team?,I;ll be watching the game tomorrow and should be able to say if your eagle eye is correct or just another rantsmileys/wink.gif

Butwhen did you eventually get it in Nordieland? And how much did it cost theEnglish taxpayer to subsidise it?

[Speedy]

Not the greatest spectacle, but they were 2 cracking penalties by Ian Humphreys.

My reading of it for next week is that both teams are level on 17, and as Biarritz picked up more pool points in their games v Ulster, (6-4), then in order for Ulster to top the group, they need to get a bonus point win and hope Biarritz don't.

I don't think its a foregone conclusion that either team will get a try bonus next week.

I don't think its a given that Ulster will get through on 21 points either. If Wasps beat Toulouse in Adams Park next week, Toulouse will finish on 21 or 22, and the runner up in group 5, either Leicester or Perpignan will be on 21 or 22 points as well (both those teams will win next week). All those teams have scored more tries than Ulster as well, so I think the champagne will be on ice until next Sunday.

Not costing either of them a cent. They are making a profit. Unlike the billions you lot leech from Mr &amp; Mrs John Smith every year.

[Speedy]

I think a losing bonus for Toulouse and try bonus for Leicester (at home to Treviso) and Perpignan (at home to Llanelli) would put Ulster out unless they score 6 tries more than Toulouse manage next week.

(I'm pre-empting a Wasps win over Glasgow in Firhill tomorrow btw)

[Mcork]

Piss poor game. Ulster were clueless at times.Very weak group and Ulster will get through as a 2nd placed runner up and will be absolutely mullered by whoever they get in the qtrs. Well I suppose it's progress for them.


Absolutely delighted that cheating ba$tard Blanco won't get his home draw now that he so meticulously organised when fixing the draw. Ulster were poor but not quite as poor as he expected. Well done N.Owens for striking a blow for fairness. My favourite ref!

Well done Ulster, typical cup rugby. I would love to see all three provinces make the q/f's. I didn't see the match but I will watch later.


More than a little disappointed to see the crap being flung around on this thread, obviously the game wasn't a great spectacle but this is cup rugby and an Irish province has beaten a French side that made it to the final last year.

Anyway enough of this crap, was at the game tonight and
to be honest I thought we played superbly. It took you to
be at the game to realise how ferocious the weather was.
The worst I've experienced in a long time. Fair enough it
was for both sides but imo we were all over them in every facet of the game (bar scoreboard) . We are an upcoming
developing team unlike yourselves and although I still think
we'l be doing well to qualify, I'm well happy with how we
played tonight. The atmosp was unreal.

Hope to god Munster pull it off too as that = better Irish
side, but sometimes I wonder whether a year or two in the doldrums would do you good.

To win the group we need 5 points out of Aironi match plus Bath either beat Biarritz or at the very least hold them to less than 4 trys.
A few results go wrong for us and we could potentially win 5 matches and not go through even as a runner up.

They didn't give us half as much as europe gave you before you all fecked them over

[ADB*]

On a rugby note it was a great win for ulster and some of the comments on here about Owens are laughable, considering how munster have played refs in the past. EG heineken cup final and killing the ball at every ruck for the last 10 minutes and getting away with it.

Biarritz were offside all day so deservedly got pinged, for me ulsters tactics on the line were poor, trying to go through the pack was a poor decision, considering how goo biarritz are up front.

As for the comment about jackie not supporting another irish province its a pretty rich acusation considering what has been said on here about ulster, as a lot of people seem less than delighted we have a chance. Fingers crossed we go through as pool leaders and you somehow cheat</span> oh sorry scrape a win against toulon and we will see yous in a QF at ravenhill, cant wait personally to see the munster scrum go backwards at a rate of knots and have ferris running down ROG channel.

[Mcork]

As poor as Munster are currently, we would win easily in Ravenhill in a qtr final. Won't happen though asUlster will be away in the qtrs and will be hammered by whoever they play.


This is not a good ulster side. Piss easy group (hand picked by Blanco)which you will only scrap through thanks to having the worst side in the comp (Airioni) and the worst English side (Barf).


Ulster would probably have finished bottom of Munster's group. A bit of perspective please.

[Red_langer1977]

what the hell is wrong with some of you folk, less of the Ulster "Nordie" insults its sad and just goes againist everything we as supporters are supposed to represent. Banter is ok but the tone of some of the comments on here are just insulting to our friends in Ulster.


Well done on your win, well deserved and delighted for you guys.

There was internet in the civilised world in the 90's...




Butwhen did you eventually get it in Nordieland? And how much did it cost theEnglish taxpayer to subsidise it?



Not anywhere near what it's costing them and the Germans to bail you out smileys/lol.gif






Not costing either of them a cent. They are making a profit. Unlike the billions you lot leech from Mr &amp; Mrs John Smith every year.

Teehee, not forgetting that every motorway, and most of the infrastructure outside Dublin has been brought up to 20th century standards thanks to billions in EU grant aid. People in glass houses you muppet. smileys/lol.gifsmileys/lol.gif Long live the Irish Banana Republic, in debt to the Germans for generations.

All i was saying was I had a dial up modem beeping away in 1996.

I understand most Munsterfans didn't crawl out from under their rocks until Munster started doing something in the noughties. Not getting through to the QFs will be a shock to the system, might do you 'self professed greatest supporters' a world of good. No one has a god given right to qualify.

Some people need to grow up. Hopefully Munster win today, but, some of their fans on this thread have been a disgrace. Not once do I remember a pack of Ulster fans on the UAFC bemoan Munster win a tight game and slag them off as much as some of you guys have done on here, and lets remember, Munster have cheated the ref to win games a lot more than Ulster have in the past.


No team has a devine right to win any match but me thinks a number of fans need a reality check and concentrate on their own teams huge game this weekend instead of the <S&#079;NG>WINNING</S&#079;NG> performanceanother province.

Oh very original, well have fun supporting the sons of munster (and new zealand and australia and SA) as jackie said ppl in glass houses, you have as many foreigners as us yet just cause we have 4 from one country we are the bad guys.

[ustix]

Agreed we have and have had a strong Sanzar influence since the advent of Messrs. Langford, Holland, Mullins, Payne and co. No bad thing and long may it last.
No bad guys in this just the maintenance of levels of mutual respect.
Glass houses? No thanks.

[ADB*]

Sorry Ustix, the tone of your post wasn't malicious like others, just banter, still as i said, its been mentioned on here several times that we are mercenaries etc, whenever we have the same number of NIQ players as other provinces, our just happen to be quality players

[ustix]

And he's off...........

[Leargas]

Some bitter eejits on this board. Ulster ground out a hard fought victory with some sublime kicking from iHumph and a massive effort from 1-15. Biarritz were let off with offsides all game. We fought like demons today and got the victory we deserved. Good luck to Toulon tomorrow, some of you feckers need a reality check.

I think the mods should step in and zap the political stuff here -- and that includes some of thecontributions from Munster fans.


I notice that your accolade at the end refers to a citizen of the said 'banana republic' (Tommy Bowe).

[ADB*]

Good one Leargas, cause all the political stuff has come from ulster fans, with munster fans being comoletely incocent, if you look at jackies quote, paulie walnuts started all the Engliash Taxpayer crap and its gone from there...

Bitterness and an unwillingness to be positive about ulster, so when we win some have to find something else to criticise us about

Indeed. Well done Ulster.
As an aside, I'd favour the self-regulatory road and appealing to the better nature of fellow adults over the 'Moderate(r)s', come quick school of squealing.

[Jackie Brown]

The Mods seem happy enough to let the abuse go on until a few Ulstermen come on to STAND UP for their province.

To call Ulster group easy is a joke, yet again we got one of the bigger French teams, Bath, when on song they can play and with Butch back they have gone 2011 unbeaten. Aironi, yeah they are dung. Compared to some of the joke groups Munster and Leinster have got in the past and the continual tough draws for Ulster I think it's a fair enough draw (a once in 10yr draw you could say! smileys/wink.gif) Anyway, COME ON GLASGAEEEEEEEEE!!

Tommy Bowe, pah, he's an Osprey now.

I dont think its praise he wanted, just a very proud Ulster fan defending his/her corner, may Munster fans roam other rugby forums and would rightly defend our club too. Really not liking all this shi#t,notin my humble opinion what supporting rugby is all about.............Banter yes..........but thisinsults and north V South bull its something that leaves a very bad taste in my mouth.

[hooke]

As poor as Munster are currently, we would win easily in Ravenhill in a qtr final. Won't happen though asUlster will be away in the qtrs and will be hammered by whoever they play.


This is not a good ulster side. Piss easy group (hand picked by Blanco)which you will only scrap through thanks to having the worst side in the comp (Airioni) and the worst English side (Barf).


Ulster would probably have finished bottom of Munster's group. A bit of perspective please.





Begrudgery is alive an well ...all your ifs whats buts etc are irrelevant, you can only play the teams in your own group as far as I know. Biaratz are a negative, piss poor team who came to destroy. Ulster played all the rugby and deserved their win. Perspective.


Ulster may qualify and get beat next round but its still progression for them, fairplay.

Great sense spoken by a munster fan there, only took 8 pages

Judging by the postings here Ulster see to be the second most favoured team:

[munsterforever]

i cant understand some of the comments on here from "fellow" munsterfans. did ye watch the game at all? I saw it in the Hotel in Nice and the weather was brutal-ulster would have been mad to throw it around as would BO. I thought Ulster were terrific under the circumstances and were unlucky not to get a couple of trys that would have killed serge's best made plans.

As for munster beating that totally committed Ulster side in ravers judging by munsters "performance" on sunday...not a snowflakes chance in hell. good luck to ulster.

[earl the beaver]

This threadsmileys/lol.gif

Such bitterness on display, apparently Ulster are to blame for not being creative, did you watch the first 20 minutes? Ulster tore through Biarritz several times and it was only good fortune and great covering that stopped Ulster having a couple of tries. But then the heavens opened, and I litterally mean the heavens, the greater part of the Atlantic must fell upon those folk, myself included, at Ravers on Saturday, it may not have looked it but conditions were atrocious, it was up the jumper rugby because that was all that could be played in the circumstances, had Munster played like that against that opposition and won the gushing and congratulations would be on going for a week not bagging the team for doing the right thing and grinding out a win in spite of the conditions, just a couple of shots of what it was actually like there.
