honestly united Posted September 24, 2021 Share Posted September 24, 2021 Probably not the strongest side, but decent enough, will be good to see some of the new signings in what will likely be a tough game. Think the bench is fairly decent, but still think we are lacking in backrow options 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GAD Posted September 24, 2021 Share Posted September 24, 2021 Yes! Been much better since the penalty try and done well with 14 men. Great try and deserved. This commentator is absolutely seething about Scottish grannies. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GAD Posted September 24, 2021 Share Posted September 24, 2021 Unforced errors killing us here. Making things far too easy for Ulster to get field position. We defend ok, it's when we get the ball back that's the issue right now. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stirlingblue Posted September 24, 2021 Share Posted September 24, 2021 What is this commentators problem. Like Scotland are the only country where a couple of players are born outwith the country. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like Scotland are the only country where a couple of players are born outwith the country. His biggest problem seems to be the idea that a person who isn't white and has a forigen name could possibly have any Scottish heritage. A lot of good and a lot of bad in that half. Think we look better since Thompson came on. Brave to go for the try at the end, and glad it came off. Think it was a bit if a physiological blow as well as Ulster were clearly hoping we would just kick it. If we can cut out the daft errors and soft turnovers in the second half we have a chance of a big result here. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stirlingblue Posted September 24, 2021 Share Posted September 24, 2021 Started both halves very poorly...…hopefully grow into the second half like the first. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark Connolly Posted September 24, 2021 Share Posted September 24, 2021 That's a sensational try, far more like the Glasgow style 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GAD Posted September 24, 2021 Share Posted September 24, 2021 Frustrating. That was an opportunity there, but the mistakes killed us. There was plenty of good stuff as well though to be fair. Lineout attack and defence was good, scrum was fine, Darge was brilliant and some of the new boys showed up well too. Wilson was magnificent as well. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
honestly united Posted September 25, 2021 Share Posted September 25, 2021 We lost that rather than Ulster winning. However positive signs and 2 points on the road is not to be sniffed at. We definetly looked better once Weir went off. I just dont think he fits the way we play. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I think Weir will be ok, but he wasn't playing well at all, I think he put at least two out on the full, had a couple of drops and was just struggling all round. Thompson did the basics much better when he came on. Still early days, but Thompson looks like he has the potential to be a very, very good player. It will he interesting to see how he goes in the Autumn for Scotland where I expect he will get his first cap. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GAD Posted September 25, 2021 Share Posted September 25, 2021 Really enjoyed that Benetton v Stormers game. A full Benetton team are no mugs. I think it'll be a decent competition this year. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GAD Posted September 25, 2021 Share Posted September 25, 2021 Kinghorn is so soft in defence. Edinburgh are just soft in general actually. They are a good team, they have some great talent, but they are such fucking pussies sometimes. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mcfadden22 Posted September 26, 2021 Share Posted September 26, 2021 Surely the time has come to forget about Kinghorn. His defence is awfull. He cannot possibly play international rugby again 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
honestly united Posted September 26, 2021 Share Posted September 26, 2021 Velacott and Graham were excellent for Edinburgh, who as a whole played some excellent rugby, but also some dreadful stuff as well. Style seems much better under Blair, just needs some work on defence. questions on why Kinghorn was at 10 when Lang and Vander Walt are available, but ball in hand he is excellent, but defensively is so poor. TBF if you had been given 2 bonus points away at Ulster, and a BP win at home to Scarlets before the games started you would have taken it, so I would say a good opening weekend 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
