[QUOTE="Peat, post: 393619, member: 42330"] I'm not taking the Men of Gwent lightly, we saw where that the Ospreys, but simple truth is if we can't turn over over the Dragons anywhere, anyplace in a game of this magnitude - we don't deserve to be in the playoffs. They're not that good. This Ulster team's beaten Bath, Scarlets and Cardiff away this year, it travels well enough. Its had more high pressure matches this season, and have more players in general who've played that level. Yes, we squeaked a little playing them at Ravers, but we sent out a 19 year old to control a 3/4 line of 20 year olds in that game. We'll have had a game to rest while Newport will get battered around by a Cardiff team that knows anything less than victory isn't acceptable, and I think thats really important - I don't think its a coincidence our pack struggled a little against Connacht after going through Northampton and Leinster. All due respect to Newport, this won't be easy and I won't be surprised when it goes ***s up, but Ulster should really win this one. [/QUOTE]
