Wow that was some finish.
Connacht won it at the breakdown, quite literally

Ulster played for 10-20mins & that's it. If Connacht had actually put away half the points they should have in the 1st half it wouldn't even have been a contest
[edit] this is Connachts 2nd win up in Ravenhill

All Saffers support Connacht in the quarters. How is their record against Ulster?
Not the best, I think. Hardly ever beat them, if memory serves.
Memory refresh. Make the Stormers vs Bulls quarter a lot more tense. SA to get one semi final.

Yup, agreed.
They will need to be more clinical in the next round.

Crowds and players are getting worse, the crowd booing is shit as is players moaning at the ref
Yup. Thought there was nothing worse in rugby at the moment than watching an Irish team play. Turns out I was wrong, watching two is even worse
More fool you.

Knew Ulster might be in trouble when I saw the selection. Depending on lads with one foot out the door to bring "impact" in the second half?
Never going to happen.

He was good at Grey College and for a few games here and there since. Career curtailed by injury and being a poes.

The no hands on the floor rule is now completely arbitrary - Kitshoff definitely went beyond the ball first in the latest one.
