Edinburgh will be in deep trouble if /when Courtney, McBurney and Atalifo come on. All third choice and a big drop off from second, especially for Courtney. No doubt the Stormers will know this and go to work to wear out the starting front row.

Paul de Wet is a big loss to the team. Herschel J is a bit flaky and then you've got Oh my Godlin! coming on off the bench.

Ulster well deserved winners.

They look really good attacking, & they just need to build some depth, so there isn't that step down, when the first choice come off,or aren't available.

Munster are better this year, but swing between looking good & nights like tonight.

This was the side expected, they do play well together, To bad Arendse did not get the OK to play this weekend, would have been a good matchup with him and Fassi. If the Bulls win, Arendse will at least be ready for the SF. Only other guy I think we will miss is Cyle Brink off the bench.

The $harks scrum is going to smash the Bulls back into the 1970's. This is going to negate the Bulls superior 8, 9, 10, 12 axis AND earn them loads of penalty points.
