Babbling 'brook

It's actually embarrassing how posters here try to attack/argue with almost every M#1 says I’m glad you noticed it. I was starting to think that I was being overly sensitive. In fairness in seems to be the usual suspects who appear to have a bit of a want. Mmm .... and I wonder what kind of recepti...

Good team and likely to be pretty spot on — I think we’ll start Cronin however. Set piece is Munster’s major strength and our lineout has only vaguely functioned when Cronin is on the pitch. Controversial! Actually think there’s a a good chance that will happen! Jimmy has been excellent and we alre...

Yep, in fact the career of Irish rugby's greatest ever player is just one example that disproves that particular theory Munster #1. Considering Munster #1 said " may never get the chance" - 1 example does not disprove his theory! But I reckon he was referring more to the current set up rather than ...

Agree on the above comment re JOB, and I'd also expect that Baird is higher up in the pecking order, considering his inclusion in the last squad.

And a big bug bear of mine - it's TADHG

I reckon Benty's deserving of a Legend Tee at some point

However, I was referring to the tempo he gave and the speed getting the ball away. McGrath didn’t attempt any difficult passes but took an age at many/most rucks. The new emphasis is aimed at eliminating the flapping around by 9s like Murray and McGrath. Strange, I was cursing JGP's hesitancy and c...

Fair play to Brace for penalising McGrath there

Benty's big right leg winning a penalty there!

Wouldn't mind Ed Byrne on at 55 mins. Ciano really is a shadow of his former self.

What's happened our lineout! Suddenly looks good again...

And the commentator last week said that Ulster have the best lineout in the Pro14!

The touchjudge on the far side looks like Jacob Stockdale

Not doing well under the aerial bombs so far

VdF just threw a seriously good pass from scrumhalf. Might be an answer to our backrow and scrumhalf conundrums

If Kelleher or Sheehan are fit I'd bring one of them into the squad and go with Cronin and Henshaw in the centre.

Toland's first half performance:

• "Ryan Bard" x3

• Described Carty's line for Blade's break as "phenomenal"

• Described a tackle on JOB in the 22 as "nearly impossible"

McGrath is not passing well tonight

Luke McGrath on kicking duties. We'll be needing plenty of tries tonight judging by that attempt

Are we going to have to listen to Toland calling Leinster's blindside "Ryan Bard" for the whole game or will someone correct him?

Greg Mcgrath is a Tighthead prop I assume? Edit: Ultimate rugby says he's a 40 year old prop no less. He doesn't look a day over 39. https://www.ultimaterugby.com/player/view/11547 As well as being 0m tall and weighing 0kg - a bit of an enigma really. There was a small bit of discussion on him in t...
