Ross Byrne at 13. God help us!!
Re: Leinster v Ulster Fri 8th January 2021 19:35 EirSport
Ross Byrne at 13? And JOB on the bench?
Have Leo and Stu started throwing one random selection into every team?
That's bizarre.

Re: Leinster v Ulster Fri 8th January 2021 19:35 EirSport
thats ridiculous, he has no experience playing any position other than 10 and he is simply too slow.
Re: Leinster v Ulster Fri 8th January 2021 19:35 EirSport
Like there are at least four other options in that 22 that are better than Ross Byrne at 13.
Ross at 12 and RH at 13
H Byrne at 12 and RH at 13
JOB at 13
Larmour at 13 and JOB on the wing
Weird.

Can someone please post the team in a readable format?
The odds are good but the goods are odd.

Turner to the bench.

Re: Leinster v Ulster Fri 8th January 2021 19:35 EirSport
There’s no way they’re lining up like that but I doubt your scenario will play out because surely JOB would be starting if he was good to go? I’d say he’s more/as likely to drop out as Johnny.Dave Cahill wrote: ↑January 7th, 2021, 12:11 pm So johnny to pull out after the captains run, Ross to 10 and JOB to 13 - odds?
I expect Ross at 12 and Robbie at 13.
There could be changes/issues in midfield (I’d hate for Harry to end up starting ten and Ross staying in the centre) but the rest of the team looks good.
Might not be the game for it but I hope we get the ball to Larmour and Keenan a lot, think they’ve both been underused at times.

Maybe JS at 12 and RB at 10 ... that would put lads where at least they have previous experienceLeRouxIsPHat wrote: ↑January 7th, 2021, 12:23 pmThere’s no way they’re lining up like that but I doubt your scenario will play out because surely JOB would be starting if he was good to go?

Re: Leinster v Ulster Fri 8th January 2021 19:35 EirSport
My prediction would be:
10 - Ross; 12 - Henshaw; 13 - JOB (or, if he is not fit, Turner)
10 - Ross; 12 - Henshaw; 13 - JOB (or, if he is not fit, Turner)
Re: Leinster v Ulster Fri 8th January 2021 19:35 EirSport
It's just numbers on jerseys. Sexton and Byrne will interchange and Henshaw is playing 13.

What about:
RB - 10; JS - 12; RH - 13 with variations depending on where set-piece is.
Suspect that JO'B is least likely to start but covers back-three. Hawkshaw for cover rather than Turner if he's missing.
