Ulster 2022-2023

[wixfjord]

Ulster well on top so far, but not doing much in attack.

Munster lineout has been poor and their back play is again pedestrian.

Looks like a bad injury to poor auld Marty Moore. Hopefully it's just a precaution, but he did give out a bit of a shout after it happened.
Looks like either a twisted knee or tweaked hamstring issue.

[Dave Cahill]

They splinted it which is never a good sign

Yep looked a lot worse as time went on.

Possible broken ankle/lower leg?

Awful for him, he had been having a really good game too.

Not good news at all for Ulster's season either.

Big stop from Ulster at HT.

Patterson having a bit of a mare. Wouldn't be surprised to see Murray soon.

Fekitoa is playing a bit better because he's being used solely as a battering ram.

[Dave Cahill]

Thats a huge defensive set from Ulster - shipped the yellow but kept the line intach

[Dave Cahill]

Half time - more blanks fired than during the filming of the opening scenes of Saving Private Ryan

[wixfjord]

Munster over for the first try.

Since Moore has gone off they've been the better side.

Big 35 mins coming up here and benches are fairly even.

[wixfjord]

Second half has really ticked up a notch.

It's now at one notch.

[Dave Cahill]

God, these teams are not very good at rugby

[wixfjord]

It is absolutely awful quality, as have many of the interpros been this year.

[wixfjord]

Absolute class from McCloskey.

Good finish too.

[Dave Cahill]

Great pass, a rare (isolated?) moment of quality. Balocounne in full flight is quite a sight too

[wixfjord]

Smart from Munster to take the kick there imo.

[Oldschoolsocks]

Score?

[wixfjord]

BIG chance for Munster now!

Currently 14-8 Ulster with 4 to go but Munster with lineout 5 metres out.

[wixfjord]

Munster go over and Healy wins it with the conversion!

Ulster have absolutely fallen apart!

[wixfjord]

That's a huge win for Munster and means a win for us tonight gives us a 15/16 point gap to Ulster in third place.

They have really set a new standard in bottling. That squad of players will have to be dismantled. It will not be a pretty sight

[Dave Cahill]

Important win for Munster - had they lost they would have struggled to qualify for Europe next season, but they didn't so they are back in the mix (though I still think they may need to finish 6th).

Ulster are a shambles. McFarland is done.
