I'm missing this too. But then again I miss them all, so at least I'm consistent

I might check my phone half way through and provide an update on the score in the match, if it's positive

Should be cracking atmosphere there though. Enjoy it all, and get singing and behind the team. I miss Connacht games. Have missed all the home games since Quins. Horrible performance from myself. I've had valid excuses though

I've also missed the home games since Quins, for almost identical reasons!

I may well miss the best man speech, assuming I can convince them to put the game on in the bar

It will be very interesting to see who Munster put out for this one especially after the embarassment of Aironi.

With 2 huge back to back home games to follow tho i believe he will rest Wian and BJ but prob put them on bench as an insurance policy.

Without even seeing the squad i expect the team to be along the lines of
Horan, Sherry, Archer, MOD, Holland, DOC2, Wallace, Coughlan.
Williams, Keatley, Zebo, Mafi, Barnes, Murphy, Jones.
Wian, Varley, BJ, Nagle, Butler, TOL, Deasy, Luke o dea/hurley.

Connacht on the other hand will be full strength minus Noc so will be a very interesting game in front of a bumper crowd. Im really looking forward to it. In a close game i expect the deciding factor may prove again to be Connacht inability to score enough points from the boot.

Home or away, doesn't really matter too much. Like Ulster we don't beat them anywhere near often enough.... :pinch:
