Ferg warned for taking Trimby in the air. Accidental, so it's just a penalty which is fair enough.

No option. So welsh for me. Still given that most of the pro12 games I watch are in Gaelic it's no biggie!
Re: RP12 Semi Final 2: Leinster v Ulster, 17 May
Many a time I've watched sport in all sorts of languages. Anyway, as long as you can see it and you can hear the ref speaking English you get the idea.

Leinster are playing like drains. But we're not making the scoreboard reflect it yet...

Ferg has gone in with his leg sticking out again and has hurt himself. Penalty given to Ulster.

These rules are farcical. McFadden nearly kicked Trimble in the face trying to keep his legs off the ground, penalty leinster for tackle in the air

Dinger will be fuming. The front row lads need to sort it. Leinster scrum is dominating too easy.

Hodges is having a poor game, screamed at Ruddock earlier to leave the maul as he went in at the side he went no where so he did nothing

Those runs are all Jimmy is good for, and aren't his job. He can't pass, nor defend - ulster are running all sorts of lines down his channel, and making gains

Of course I'm joking.
Leinster so sloppy. What happened to the clinical Leinster I used to love.

HT 0-6. Tough second half coming for Ulster I expect. I can't see Leinster staying like this. They're all over the shop.

Re: RP12 Semi Final 2: Leinster v Ulster, 17 May
Ulster's accuracy frustrating, Leinsters worse but their scrum is keeping them in the game and just like the last time we played Leinster we've missed touch from penalties! Ruan is trying to put it on the corner flag from his own half. Too ambitious!
We've had chances to score and if Ulster score the first try I'll feel a whole lot better. Leinster at sixes and sevens in the backs but every time they drop the ball in our half Cian Healy licks his lips because he fancies winning a penalty off our scrum. We need the Big License!

Ref is consistent tonight which is a help. Scrappy game for him to try keep things calm. He's missing the squint scrum feeds but he's missing it for both sides.
Gonna be a typical commentator and go with the cliche "who scores the first try is gonna win this"

Another little error by Leinster there. They need to watch themselves. This could be won by penalties at this rate. Reddan not having a good game...

The Man with the Biblical Beard is back on. Ulster really should've scored whilst he was off. Anyway...Trimby's legging it up the pitch now....GWAAAAAN ULSTER!

Another penalty from Wee Paddy puts Leinster a converted try and a bit behind. No pressure...

Darcy is a clown giving a penalty there, ref having a good game so far. looks like only one winner the way it is going.

Leinster have suddenly woken up and remembered they're playing in a semi final...they should score here.
Eh...nope turnover!

Typical Leinster performance for this season,thank God for international rugby where we can see what these players can do when they're well coached.MoC has a lot of work to do next year if he wants to extend his contract.

How long did he sign up for? Extending his contract is not something I'd be very eager to do.

I'm torn between Ulster or Leinster to win as i think Leinster looks less dangerous but Glasgow would lose the home advantage.

2 years with the option of another year as far as I know,Leinster shouldn't take the option unless things improve hugely.Winning here wouldn't paper over the cracks imo,we've been poor all year and shown up in the big games.
