Is Earls fit by any chance?

JoeMangled

What a pile of shite. We are going to get reemed come ruck time. Toner is a tryer, but he does not get anywhere near low enough or hit hard enough. Dropping Marshall has honestly pissed me off so much. How do players get test experience then? Fucks sakes. Him being the only player to get it in the n...

JoeMangled

BOD has a 2 on 1, but he's already committed himself to 1 of the 2, so somebody's free if Cooper passes outside. You can see that Marshall is a step or 2 behind Madigan and BOD, in a reverse banana. You normally expect the curve of the middle 3 to be outwards towards the attack, not inwards, toward...

JoeMangled

Madigan obviously didn't do well. But the picture makes it clear he was covering 2 men. And there's a f**king huge gap to his right, what is going on there? If Marshall makes that tackle and Cooper gets the ball away then BOD has a 2 on 1 as well. I mean it's not totally clear cut either way. In my...

Just on Against the Head, it is such a waste of an hour. I want to see some proper analysis of play. Clips of defence and attack patterns and where they are going right and wrong. I already had 60 minutes of shitetalk about the game in the pub, I can do that myself. Matty and Franno are sorely misse...

JoeMangled

Just to put ourselves on alert, i think all 3 lads on Against the Head motioned for Madigan to start at 10.

JoeMangled

I will jump from the the top tier of lansdowne if that happens, into, what i assume will be, a heavenly sea of my fellow countrymen & women's hands as im carried in a euphoric wave of pshun, honestly, and groping of my lovely balls.

JoeMangled

here, dont knock down the ghost estates yet lads. we've got a use for them.

JoeMangled

We'd want to get our water pipes sorted out in time for this. The turd increase percentage will be off the f**king chain.

Olding's injury

These wit kant better make some f**king tackles on Sunday.

JoeMangled

A tale of two defences for me. We were so soft in our line speed (what line speed?) compared to the Ozzies who gave us absolutely no time on the ball whatsoever. This resulted in either panicy kicks, rushed passes, getting turned over or giving away penalties for holding on. On the flip side, Cooper...

JoeMangled

So Ulster are losing 3 of our first choice front 5. Humph better be recruiting well. Has he let anyone down yet? Ulster have been struggling with back up 10s since Humph Jnr fupped off. I'll be very dissappointed if Court goes. With Aofa already set to leave that leaves our front row options far to...

JoeMangled

On reflection, it's a B for the first episode of the Joe Show. I'd give him a B-, but it was his first international game so a bit of leeway given. Remember this time last year we tore the hole out of a disinterested Argentina side. We really need to give the lads a decent few games before we start ...

The christmas drinking season has kicked off

Any highlights floating around? I want to watch BODs flick in super slow mo.

*edit* well that didnt take much searching to be fair.

I'm hoping the lack of Marshall is just because he's not being played 3 games on the trot. But I can't wait to see D'Arcy's beard in the flesh.

JoeMangled

I'd say we are just feeling a bit fragile after that mare of a 6 Nations. I'm really looking forward to the team selection and am feeling confident going into the weekend. Hoping the injuries are not serious however. The 6Ns showed what a few of those can do. Need O'Brien, BOD and POC all firing. Th...

JoeMangled

Honestly, I've no issue with anyone supporting whatever team they want. Northern Ireland has certainly had a difficult history which is thankfully progressing bit by bit as the years go by. And is a much different place than it used to be, in even recent history. But of course it still is not perfec...

Ulster Rugby has always represented both sides of the community and 'your kind' have always been welcome in Ravenhill. Belfast was a shit hole back in those days but Ulster rugby has always been better than that. absolutely. im sure you'd say im from 'your side' themaddog, but i've been going to ra...

JoeMangled

Here, here. 2DT are the thinking mans second row.

Handsome Johann Muller is out for 4-6 weeks apparently, calf strain.

JoeMangled

Leinster fans will know better, but I have never honestly noticed Dave Kearny in a game and though "wow, that was great play." When Joe was appointed though I thought Trimble's Ireland career was in trouble, but because he would miss out to Ferg. Both physical players that give 100% every game. McFa...

JoeMangled

Im disappointed in some of those calls. I'd like to see Olding get as much time interacting with BOD as possible before he hangs up the boots. Really think Cave has been kicked in the balls as well.

JoeMangled

Christ I hate the English, French and Welsh. How could you have boardroom discussions with those dicks without punching them in the throat?

Bad eggs I say!

JoeMangled

The Lions can go and fudge off now too.

And Conor O'Shea, wit kant.

JoeMangled

BT Sport already imploding.

Just enjoy the win Earl. You'll give yourself an injury.

It's been a beautiful day.

JoeMangled

these weekends of watching countless matches on streams do nothing for my eyes.

although i went on the rip in Ravenhill and Sinnotts last week and that didnt do me any favours either.

well done Connacht and Cardiff.

JoeMangled

He is bloody awful. Stop interrupting Drico you f**king ganch.

JoeMangled

That reverse pass of BOD's is so bloody good. What a player.

I missed the latest round of "who's the next ireland 13" there, but Olding is most exciting prospect I've seen in a long time. That boy just has skills.

JoeMangled

You can see he works hard during games and has stepped up up his efforts at clearing rucks. Maybe if POC gave him a few slaps before a game to angry him up a bit.

JoeMangled

In fairness to Boner, he has been consistently decent for a while now. I just dunno if he's got the mean streak for Test rugby. As a weedy back, he was the kind of 2nd row i loved tackling. Plenty of soft ribs and stomach to aim the shoulder at. I bet he has big spindly hairy legs though. Im not tou...

JoeMangled

That Saracens game was a ballbreaker. When the draw was made it was game on, but the closer we got to it, the more momentum Sarries built and the more Ulster's season seemed to be falling away with poor form and injuries. Was a very frustrating game to watch. All Saracens needed to do was make their...

Sean O'Brien is a joy to watch. Don't ever let him leave for France Ladyboys.

I really thought both 10s had good games. PJ is a very tidy player. 10 is a tough spot on the pitch but I'm delighted ulster have him. Excellent in defence. I think we need to concentrate on the positive aspects of our young Irish players.

Won't get to see it again but it was a cracking game.

JoeMangled

God damn motherfucking M1 is closed. New Ravenhill is going to take some getting used to. Looks nice, a little too nice for Belfast. Shop is good and has plenty of nice gear. Main bar is much the same. Secret bar behind the far end of the prom was only selling bottles. Pints were £3.80, £4 for cider...

*double post emergency edit*

Did you know...

I think ravenhill looks really nice without the old stand up. It's cool seeing the Belfast hills in the background on TV.

JoeMangled

My tickets for the all blacks game arrived yesterday, I'd forgotten how expensive they were. My bank account is still fuct from it. Bloody lovely day out there lads. Freezing mind. Shame about madigan, but no need to take a shit fit yet. Jimmy G is solid for a tricky away game and you need a 10 on t...

JoeMangled

Couple of really lovely kicks from Jacko tonight. I'm guessing there wasn't much wind getting in there?

He is a very tidy player, and great in defence. If he can get the kicking consistent, well...lets just say, i may piss my pants.

JoeMangled

Anyway, looking forward to the ulster match tonight. Will be good to gauge what shape they are really in.

fuk you miley cyrus, complete spanner.

JoeMangled

There's a development of nondetached houses when you're coming onto the M1 from Swords Airside direction. There must be about 60 houses in a line without a bit of space between them.

Drives me up the wall. They could have been nice with a bit green between them.

JoeMangled

Lorcan is probably your best best on advice there. However, a few questions... How long left on the life of the mortgage? Between capital & repayment, how much will you spend on the mortgage over the remaining lifetime of the mortgage? Would it be more than a hit taken on the negative equity now? I...
