Sorry to hear about Jeff Bezos's rocket exploding prematurely. A good technique to prevent that from happening is to try thinking about something you find totally unarousing or even repulsive, like giving workers a living wage or paying a fair share of taxes.
I can’t shake the hunch that they’ve deliberately waited until after Alonso was off the market. Would have been the overwhelming fan choice but an awkward fit for the infrastructure.
I suspect that it won't happen, and it's a shame that it needs to, but performance like that second half is why Slot needs to go
Really likeable man, but we have run out of ideas and momentum and I find it near impossible to see how he turns it around
Glad of a break now!

@atjames88@Biggles1972 He has. Next season there needs to be further development but the development from the dross of last year is a significant improvement and missing out on playoffs isn't the end of the world as long as it's the foundation for more.
Next summer is the time to judge
@rbarnett08 This was bang on mate. We were losing contact frequently and trying to play out and making mistakes.
Don't think it made any difference to final outcome but hopefully developed the game intelligence of a few. Pretty aggressive demonstration of the gap sadly
Fair play to Montpellier, I think they would give Leinster a very decent game.
Ulster have to find some way of producing a pack that can get close to the size and power of a typical Top 14 pack. Until you can at least cope with the size, you're always going to get run over sadly
Additionally, we have to sort the scrum this summer. We can't seem to get a cohort that can stand up to the demands of anybody above average, or the demands of a full rugby season
If there are no Irish options, we need to go abroad. Killing us in so many tight games for too long
A pretty pathetic first 60 from Ulster. Rallying from a position of seemingly no hope against 14 men shouldn't be considered in review.
Couldn't match Leinster B's intensity, intelligence or physicality whilst the game was alive. A real backward step.

Level of punditry on Amazon is shockingly low at times. Sturridge I don't mind, but cod psychology nonsense dominates far too much of what comes out Rooney and Seedorf's mouth.
Fowler is a hero, but he's less analyst and more supporters reflector.
Hopefully not his last major, but 6 starts to feel closer to the total Rory should have for his talent.
Freewheeling Rory could be fun for the next 5-10 years
@rbarnett08 All about the intensity I thought. Last week they seemed to think they would win. Tonight they made sure of it and played like that. Although La Rochelle also filling the traditional 'french club on the road' cliche to a tee!
Lisbon airport. Wow what a truly terrible experience. 2 hours and counting in passport queue. Families deliberately sent down the slow lane.
Haven't seen the city as yet but still feel it's a firm avoid...
Ireland need to put some structure on this. Scotland much more advantages by a basketball game. Keep making them play from inside their own half and the mistakes will come.

Has the rule about the ball being at the back of a ruck for 5 seconds been changed? Pierce basically saying use it, followed immediately with a let's go 9.
So genuinely curious
