[QUOTE="Logorrhea, post: 499040, member: 43061"] They werent far off a full team a few weeks ago. Aside form injuries and suspensions, I dont think they rested that many players. They really wanted to win it, and were well short against a Leinster team that didnt even ask Darce and Nacewa to travel. Dont get me wrong, I rate Ulster very highly, they remind me of us a few years ago when we ambushed Munster in Croke park. They have an excellent spine and some real match winners. However: 1. We are used to winning against them, they are used to losing to us. Mentally that is hard to overcome. 2. They have no bench, we have serious strength in depth. 3. I just dont believe that THEY really think they can win it themselves. They will go all out for it of course, but during the match, when the game goes against them I dont think they are strong enough to turn it around. [/QUOTE]
