Ulster v Edinburgh tickets available.

nope

that reply is everything that is wrong with this forum.

the guy makes a genuine offer & gets that sort of bulls**t back which is a shame

I wish i could take those tickets but i can't but hope you get them sold.

got a feeling it could be a very good match up.

Let's hope both semis get some decent weather instead of the desperate stuff we have had of late.

I'd try the Ulster fans' forum or the Leinster one. Plenty of tickets still available so offering them at a discount might be your best bet. Forecast is unfortunately shyte for Dublin this weekend.

pity about the weather, not too sure who it will suit more.

Ulster presumably.  All they really have is a set of obstinate forwards, a penatly kicker and a conservative style of play. 

Not that many line breakers on either team really.  Can see a low scoring affair.

Any odds out there on no tries scored?

was bored earlier in the afternoon and having a look at the likely line ups for this.

it appears the Edinburgh back row will be Denton, Rennie & Talei which is a hell of a good trio and made me wonder why Ed have done so poorly in the league.

It turns out that, as far as i can see, this threesome have only started 4 matches together all season. Two in the league (23-23 v Glasgow & a win away at Treviso) & two in the HC (the away win at Racing & the QF win v Toulouse)

It also transpires that Edinburgh have not lost all season when at least 2 of them have started. Given Ed's poor season that does of course also tell us that 2 out of 3 of them starting has not happened all that often.

May mean nothing in the context of this game but thought i would pass it on (apologies if I have missed a game somewhere but on the quick whizz through the season it seemed to be right enough)

Now that is a good stat.  Far better than some refereeing thing from an irrelevant comp anyway.  Talei looks a hell of a player the limited times I have spied him out of my one eye.

Dublin weather forecast for tomorrow not looking too bad. sunnt spells with the chance of a shower but not the downpours of earlier in the week thank goodness.

can't believe how much standing water they raced through at Punchestown.

It was awful wasn't it?  Never seen the like.

Hopefully both games might get lucky then.  The weather leaves France on Sat and comes to us for Sun.  The other way round on the calendar and both games would be fecked.

should be ok, the new stadium is bound to have the best drainage possible.

Press claimimg that Rory Jackson will start at 10 for Ulster ahead of Humphries.

No shortage of tickets knocking around. Scots haven't put their hands in their pockets to travel and Ulster Men saving themselves for the Final on the Mainland.

Owen Reddan's mate?

marshall being fit is a boost for the Ulster bench. very quick and could be a handy player to bring on late in the game.

Definitely some issues for Ulster, mainly at tight-head as Afoa is a big loss. Faloon instead of Henry probably isn't ideal is it? Not exactly a world-beating bench either.

Really looking forward to that back-row battle. As usual a lot of Ulster's fortunes revolve around the human wrecking-ball Ferris.

Keep up northanlite!

back row battle will be very interesting indeed. ferris won't get it all his own way imo.

Paddy! Jackson.  Conveyor belt of exciting 10s in Irish rugby atm, its hard to keep up!

Can Edinburgh get to Piennar early and do a job on him? Or does that sort of thing not happen anymore?
