Munster v Ulster

by BlueMuff Tue Apr 03, 2012 12:00 am

First topic message reminder :

Well what a difference a few days make. Leinster stroll past Munster in Thomond, Ulster cruise past Airioni and now definitely fancy their chances on Sunday and rightly so.

My Munster team if players available would be

1. Wian Du Preez
2. Mike Sheery
3. BJ
4. DOC1
5. POC
6. DR
7. POM
8. Coughlan
9. Murray
10. ROG
11. ZEBO
12. Maifi
13. Earls
14. Hurley
15. Jones

Pretty much picks itself bar hooker and back row. Line out was just so bad that Varley has to pay the price. May not have been all his fault but Sherry has been knocking on the door and deserves a shot at this level.

DOC2 had a solid game but I think the partnership of POC and DOC should stand us well. DR to the back row.

Rodders Ulster team

15 Terblanche
14 Trimble
13 Cave
12 Wallace
11 Gilroy
10 IHumph
9 Pienaar
8 Wannenburg
6 Diack
7 Henry
5 Touhy
4 Muller
3 Afoa
2 Best
1 Court

Unbelievable D from Ulster out there today!

by trebellbobaggins Mon Apr 09, 2012 1:34 am

I'm not used to seeing Munster pinged at home. Normally they manage to force the other team to give them away.

by Golden Mon Apr 09, 2012 1:34 am

Scrum eating up the clock

by Cari Mon Apr 09, 2012 1:34 am

Jebus! Munster have more lives than a cat!

well done Ulster. Lovely to see someone fresh in the semis.

Munster still good even in a poor year though.

That other second row though is a bit poor now isn't he. POC great as always.

by Golden Mon Apr 09, 2012 1:37 am

What a game!!!!!!!! Get in!!

by eirebilly Mon Apr 09, 2012 1:37 am

Well done Ulster clap

by Guest Mon Apr 09, 2012 1:37 am

wow. What a game.

What a win by Ulster! fair play, that defence alone deserved a win there, that's just incredible clap

Enjoy it Ulster fans! Those first 20mins from you were sublime.

Amazing attempted comeback by Munster though, that was a great match to watch.

by Cari Mon Apr 09, 2012 1:38 am

Fez limping a bit, hope he's not going to regret coming back now...deserved MOTM king

by eirebilly Mon Apr 09, 2012 1:40 am

Now go on and win it Ulster, thats something special to beat Munster at home clap

by GunsGerms Mon Apr 09, 2012 1:40 am

Stand up for the Ulstermen. Ulster could go allthe way

by WillyGilly Mon Apr 09, 2012 1:41 am

Yes get in come on. So pumped.

by trebellbobaggins Mon Apr 09, 2012 1:42 am

Cany anyone see anyone beating Leinster though? They look in their own class at the mo.

by Glas a du Mon Apr 09, 2012 1:42 am

They should have the Edinburgh Ulster semi in Anfield.

by Golden Mon Apr 09, 2012 1:42 am

That second half reminded me of Leinster away to Quins when they won. Unreal defence

by Cari Mon Apr 09, 2012 1:42 am

So who plays who next?

by justified sinner Mon Apr 09, 2012 1:43 am

Great game, enjoyed that. Well done Ulster see you in Dublin.

by trebellbobaggins Mon Apr 09, 2012 1:43 am

It would be lovely to see Ulster do it. They have the belief so who knows. Maybe this is the year! That was a heck of a win.

by toml Mon Apr 09, 2012 1:44 am

Stand Up! We can beat anyone now. Heineken Cup for BMacs leaving present.

by eirebilly Mon Apr 09, 2012 1:44 am

Ulster - Leinster final looks very much on the cards

by **Ozzy3213** Mon Apr 09, 2012 1:44 am

Ulster v Edinburgh and Sarries or ASM v Leinster Cari.

by Cari Mon Apr 09, 2012 1:44 am

OK, they said...

Ulster v Edinburgh

Leinster v whoever wins this afternoon....Sarries or Clermont.

Kicking myself for not putting a tenner on Ulster to win the tournament now, was getting to see if Ferris was fit then forgot. Think we could go all the way now.

by eirebilly Mon Apr 09, 2012 1:46 am

I wonder if the bearded one will have a few celebratory drinks tonight Wink

by Feckless Rogue Mon Apr 09, 2012 1:47 am

Good stuff Ulster. Well done Ale

Although makes me dislike the decision to demote McLaughlin even more. Takes them from Pro 12 also rans to a HC home semi final and possibly final, and he gets ditched?? Not right.

by Cari Mon Apr 09, 2012 1:47 am

I don't know...Leinster could well be the biggest hurdle, but don't underestimate Edinburgh. They did beat Toulouse....

+1... For a guy who was very average in Auckland!

Well done Ulster that was some serious defence! Great kicking ruan and a moment of magic from Gilroy.

Must say I thought Ferris, Muller, Tuohy, Best, Afoa and Cave were all outstanding. Absolutely awesome displays from each of them. They came with so much commitment and aggression

Hard luck Munster, you showed an extraordinary amount of determination and heart as only can be expected from you.

does anyone know the dates for the semi finals?

by doctor_grey Mon Apr 09, 2012 1:53 am

Great hard nosed, near bullet proof defense.
Great to watch as a (near) neutral. Inspirational.

by **Biltong** Mon Apr 09, 2012 1:55 am

Muster could well be dissappointed that they didn't win, they had the possession and the territory, but then Ulster defended their hearts out.

by Hound_of_Harrow Mon Apr 09, 2012 1:55 am

Congrats to Ulster, they put enough points on the board in the first half hour to defend the inevitable comeback from Munster.
clap

It was a bit turgid at times, but tense at the end.
