Anyone going to the game?
Thinking of heading down on Saturday for it. There are still some seats left for €30
Never been to the renovated version of Lansdowne.
Can people advise which seats are to be avoided, due to poor view, or other reasons.
No seats left in the toilet bowl small stand. Quite a few in the main stand behind the posts. Well, in the corners.

The correct term is "The Connacht End"!

The further down the main stand lower tier (closer to pitch level) you are, the harder it is to get a good view of the game. You will spend most of your time looking at the big screen.
But with approx 35,000 ulster supporters in the ground, it will be anything but dull.

The missus is away. I have the car... but have to save my money. Should be a good game. Edinburgh and Ulster will both be fired up to the max.

Congrats to Ulster. 22-19 at the finish. Consolation for Edinburgh with final play. Good game, Ulster were much more sensible in the 2nd half, stamped their authority on the game, dictated the play, kept things tight, played territory and kept the scoreboard ticking, Edinburgh couldn't get enough continuity together to threaten.
Pienaar really showed his worth with his kicking and general play.
A Leinster victory tomorrow will make for a great weekend for Irish Rugby. Fingers crossed.

To use a phrase from another code - it's squeaky bum time now (for us fans anyway).
A win for Leinster tomorrow will transform the Connacht experience next year. Season tickets already going well - a win tomorrow will be huge for us.
This season had it's ups and downs, but those 3 heineken matches were untouchable for atmosphere!
Ohhh please leinster - man up tomorrow - if only for the 3,200 of us who put our faith in Irish Rugby in the W
est this year and who want some small reward for it next year.

Can't see any other HEC winner than out of the other Semi. Ulster will need to raise their game massively to beat either Leinster or Clermont. Saying that Herself has bought tickets for the final so I shall be SUFTUM....

Great game! That said I though Poite was terrible and if I was a Scot I'd be fuming at some of his decisions. That said Ulster were deserved winners. Fair play to Laidlaw though when he ripped the ball off Wannenburg I thought Wannenburg's expressions was priceless. Pienaar was imperious.
