WTF Barnes? "Laidlaw going well so far" does he even watch rugby?

Granted, Mike Brown wouldn't have seen the pass was on…

Teo who just crabbed across the pitch destroying the space Hogg would have created with that line? Lmao.

Faletau and Sinckler the only ones coming out with any credit so far.

Sexton, Hogg and Henderson are rank rotten.

Joseph has made some good tackles.

Watson showed good tourist spirit when he didn't slap Hogg for that pass?

Yeah, but Watson tripped and faceplanted with an open try line earlier.

Gatland, but not the one you'd want...

I'd say Teo amd Joseph are showing signs of promise, but with mistakes...

Half time subs? George for Best, Faz for Teo (only because Sexton is stinking the place up but won't get yanked)

Who the hell is the captain? Someone needs to be in the refs ear about going to the TMO. There is a TMO, right?

Has Joe Marler touched the ball?

Was that a PENALTY in front of the posts as the clock was about to go red that they didn't kick?

You wouldn't even know he was playing if it weren't for the scrums.

I think Sinckler, Moriaty, Faletau, Te'o and Laidlaw are going OK. We cannot judge the poor wings or Joseph. The others...dross. Especially the 2nd rows.

Not sure on Laidlaw… But I think he's just not the type of 9 I'm a fan of, so could just be biased

Agree otherwise…

We'll win by at least 20.

Stress not.

Great bias here from the Ulster twitter - Best has been garbage

Best did stand out though, but not in the way that the tweet implies.

Marler barely touches the ball at test level. He's there to hit rucks and make big hits. Not that he's achieved any of the latter so far.

And, I know, it's early days, but can anyone remind me why Henderson and AWJ are there over Launchbury?

Ah, I know, it was more that I forgot he was playing until there was a close up… which I then realised wasn't a close up of the bench…

I guess that's an anomaly for us Kiwis, since our fatties are expected to be ball-carriers these days, in addition to their core duties.
