The fact that Kleyn will be out for an extended period too only makes things worse. I honestly can't believe our luck.

Posted: **Tue Aug 25, 2020 9:27 am**

its a complete sh1t show of luck ; POM and Archer ?

I think Killer is possibly a bigger loss than Kleyn - step forward Thomas Ahern

Snyman must have cost more per minute than Messi

Posted: **Tue Aug 25, 2020 9:46 am**

Fuck sake, even I was looking forward to seeing him play for Munster this season. 7 mins into debut and will now likely miss the whole season

De Allende will probably be hit by a meteor next week

Fok Munster, it took you all of 7 minutes to break him.

Anyone got a video or a gif? Would like to see it again. At the time I felt he jumped across the line so POM completely lost contact with him, couldn’t really see the rear lifter but Snyman was left to drop without anyone guiding him down. An extremely costly fuck up for Munster in every way.

Could it have been somewhat caused by unfamiliarity ? Maybe not used to each other in competitive situations and a dose of bad luck ?

nah just poor by the lifters to (elite) support the jumper

Posted: **Tue Aug 25, 2020 10:46 am**

the elite support really should have been there for Jumper.

Bad luck all round. Would worry about kleyn too tbh not his first neck injury. He’s had long layoffs for it in the past.

Time to promote the young lads.

This. JJ's just publicly been given tenure and signs are younger lads still need a lucky break for gametime.

If Larkham has a greater say in selection hopefully we'll evolve a bit next season.

So like the bog Irish. Bemoaning the fact someone else is talking more utter shite than them.
What an infantile impulse.

Perhaps less talk and more do. Then maybe just maybe you little blowhards may finally be rewarded with your little nations greatest sporting achievement.

The actual semi final of a RWC.

Notice I used the word actual. That means the actual real semi final. Not the fantasy scenario you little people spent 10000 pages in the other place wanking each other over. And for what. Just another QF debacle. And this is after a decade of poaching Brain, brawn and skill from the South.

Ireland magnificent one day(in their own little minds) splattered and sent back to the bog again the next(in reality).

I'm still angry about the Irish breaking Snyman in all of 7 minutes. Have to say hard luck, he is one hell of a player and I'm sad you won't get to see him in full flight soon.

Noises coming out from the Ulster camp that Stewart Moore will be starting this weekend.

Young Ulster player getting gametime in a Lions year can only mean one thing

Posted: **Wed Aug 26, 2020 9:34 am**

Speaking of Lions-certainties from Ulster, I thought O’Sullivan and O’Toole looked sharper than the men they replaced on Sunday. O’Toole looked like he had bulked up in a good way.

perhaps Ulster are cunningly trying to woo the Star Wars fanbase to supplement their own by playing Jabba the hut at tighthead. Its a bold strategy

might see a bit more rotation with the likes of Lowry, Rea and hopefully Rea getting some game time although we need to play ourselves into a bit of form ahead of the knock out games so need to get the mix right

Based on the Connacht game, Ulster look like they might be sharing the minutes rather than naming first/ second-string teams. Probably not a bad idea when the results don’t matter.
