First topic message reminder :

Ulster vs Saracens.

Saturday 5th April at 6:30pm

First game at a newly renovated Ravenhill I believe with a new capacity of 18,000.

Ulster are currently 3rd in the Pro12 and won all their pool stages in the HC, including impressive away wins vs Leicester and Montpellier.

They have a few Irish players who were involved in the title winning 6 nations like Best and Trimble. Trimble in particular had a very good tournament.

Close to full strength in terms of their squad.

According to Ulster fans their current form hasn't been great but I take that firmly with a pinch of salt. Their latest result - a loss to Cardiff could shake any sense of complacency.


Saracens are currently the league leaders in the AP with a healthy 7 point gap off 2nd placed Saints. Just 2 losses in the AP in 18 matches which contrasts with their two losses in the pool stages of the HC. Saracens are currently the top try scorers in the AP and were top try scorers in the HC pool stages. Form wise Saracens have been comfortable without really putting in a notable performance.

Notable clashes

Best vs Brits - the Irish hooker vs the flamboyant South African who plays more like a centre - will be key in getting their teams into good positions.

Muller vs Borthwick - skipper vs skipper - both will be key in inspiring their sides.

Jackson vs Farrell - the 2nd choice Irish 10 vs the current England 10 - both will be expected to boss the game and take any opportunities and points on offer

He was looking at the ball. It wasn't intentional. Clumsy at worst. But very dangerous.

Certainly wasn't intentional but as you say very dangerous. Real neck braker of a landing.

Really wish Goode the best of luck, he fell very badly.

Harsh red though I think but cant have too much to argue about.

Long game for Ulster now.

Red card for the 15 for tackling Goode in the air, Goode landed on his head and had to be stretchered off.

Even the Saracens fans around me didn't think it was red. Seems harsh. But it was very nasty fall.

i listenened to the whole french interaction of the ref, touch judge and tmo. the key points they all three made were

payne did not jump, and did not compete for the ball
goode landed on his head

therefore they considered it to be i) dangerous and ii) deliberate (not taking eyes off ball is not an excuse if you know you may be running through someones legs who is in the air). Therefore "professional foul" were the words mentioned by the tmo.

I think the fact he didn't compete for the ball by jumping, but instead just ran into him.

Ulster havent lost though yet

I hope Goode is OK there he didn't look good when he fell

It is not a red card though, very clumsy, should be more aware but he is looking at ball the whole time he didnt even get his hands up had he been trying to do it the hands would have been up so he didn't get a knee to the head.

Wrong decision. Clearly an accident. Game ruined. Hope Goode is ok. Injury definitely influenced the decision.

I think what went against him is that he didn't compete for the ball, he just ran straight into him. If you far enough away that you choose to not compete for the ball then your far enough away to pull out.

Certainly dont think it was intentional though.

Thought it was going to be a yellow for sure.

I was all looking forward to seeing Payne play.

rubbish. he didnt compete for it therefore it was potentially dangerous. and when goode landed on his head, red is fair enough. payne needed either to jump, or check his run. rugby players know exactly whats going on around them so i dont buy the "he had his eyes on his ball" nonsense as an excuse.

Why oh why do the commentary team talk and talk over the ref mike so that we can not hear what they are saying? On a different note - what a shame that this has completely changed the whole nature of the game - in a bad way.

Need to see it again bit it looked clumsy and a yellow. The way Goode fell made it look worse. That said, I'm fairly drunk and the screen seems hazy. And there's a pink elephant giving me the eyes three rows down

theres a big difference between something being an accident, and someone making it look accidental even when they knew what they were doing was dangerous. payne did the latter and paid the price.

maet wise up if your eyes are up in the air how can you possibly know what is going on around you, the fact that good landed on his head while is a bad injury to goode is nothing to do with the decision had he landed on his backside and got up and wlasked away should that have changed the decision? No it should not, it is ayellow, not a red

theres a big difference between something being an accident, and someone making it look accidental even when they knew what they were doing was dangerous. payne did the latter and paid the price.

You really are dumb if you think he intentionally tackled Goode in the air. No hope for you.

Put it this way lads, it still 0-0. Ulster need to slow this game down and control it. Then strike. 

Needs intelligence, nous and brute-force to execute it though. 

Mon Ulster!

I have never been Paynes biggest fan. Ask any ulster man. That wasnt a red though. Not intentional anyway. Any clown could tell that.

Ulster still have the nous to stay in this match and possibly nick a win.

only you have said he intentionally tackled goode in the air.

are you actually watching the game or just listening to irish radio?

because the refs were under no doubt. ref, tmo, and touch judge. but obviously if you know the letter of the law better i bow to your superior knowledge. fat chance.

Yeah, I was expecting yellow, but cannae argue with the red - not intentional, but reckless and dangerous. Just such a shame it has taken the shine off of what would have been the icing on the cake of a great afternoon of rugby so far.
