Burns captaining Ulster and returning to Kingsholm is newsworthy.

Really pleased to see Nagle Taylor rewarded for his display in the thumping we took last week.

Still, I expect to lose this.

Hell of a finish. Ulster 3 points up and in possession ob the Gloucester 22 in the 79th minute, only to knock on and give Glaws a scrum. That led to a pen kicked for touch, then to a sweeping 40m attack which Glaws probably should've scored from if LRZ hadn't had a Mike Brown moment with a man outside. Thankfully another penalty led to another 2 mins of battering at Ulster before they went wide and Barton cut a beautiful line to squeak over. Phenomenal finish!

That was fun.
Hell for Glaws supporters i imagine who must have written the game off after the team had carelessly let a winning position ebb away.
Good effort to claw their way back in and just grab the win.

Trimble's choice of "star player" was bizarre to say the least.

Highly exciting. Thought the writing was on the wall, when playing against 13 men we lost the period 3-0.

Pleased for the spirit that should give the players, some young uns in there and that’s given the whole club a little buoyancy
