The 50 point mark feels more attainable with that win. with 50 points the past seasons of #BKTURC means top 8 & KO rugby 21/22 Glasgow 50 22/23 sharks 48 23/24 ospreys 50 (lions also on 50 ospreys through on games won) 24/25 Scarlets 48 Tough battle for those spots ahead

@AindriuR_1 He said it was the lions lock Oosthuizen but he re-signed with them yesterday. Otherwise I have no idea. I also don't like floating rumours because if I'm wrong I look like more of an idiot than normal

@the2ndRow Jackman said we’re getting a lock: who 👀 ?

Ulster 19 Connacht 26 5 points away from home An interpro win on the 12th attempt First 4 game win streak in 3 years Defence defence defence big hits huge work rate an 80 minute performance there The attack tightened up the bench added great energy #ULSvCON #BKTURC

A well deserved win looked more cohesive than Ulster and grew into the game

There's a game here to be won if Connacht can improve the accuracy+ decision making and actually build pressure like they did leading up to the 1st try

Ulster 7 Connacht 7 A bitty frustrating but physical game Defences definitely dominating Connacht made a lot of handling errors early on & making too many unforced errors The kicking strategy + chase is poor giving Ulster good counter attack platform #ULSvCON #BKTURC

It's rare that I'll call a podcast unmissable but @gcooney93 & @SineadOCarroll is always must listen and especially this week Great chat on what and how is being done to protect players

That backline can cause trouble with the mix of pace and power All backed up with a bench that will add impact whenever they are unleashed #ULSvCON #BKTURC

We go again!!! @connachtrugby head to Belfast welcoming back 5 internationals for the hugely important #Interpro The leagues top scorer Jansen is fit and starting at 8 in a pack that's growing more powerful as the season goes on

A reminder that @IrishRugby are coming to Dexcom Stadium when they face Italy ☘️🇮🇪 Tickets on sale 🎟️ connachtrugby.ie/tickets/womens… #OneConnacht
