Celtic League RaboDirect PRO12 : PREVIEW 2012/13 Round 21: 19th – 21st April 2013 ROUND 21 PREVIEWS It was all change yet again at the top of the RaboDirect PRO12 table following round 20 with Ulster retaking the top position, whilst Glasgow Warriors slipped to third. And with just two rounds left, and a maximum of ten points on offer, five teams are still vying for the four Play-Off places. The game of this round must be 4th placed Ospreys visit to Scotstoun to play third in the table Glasgow Warriors on Friday night. Having lost to another Play-Off contender, Scarlets, last time out, Warriors have slipped to their lowest point in the table since Christmas, whilst if they have to have any hope of retaining their title, Ospreys must ensure they make the Play- Offs so both teams know every point counts. Leaders Ulster are also in action on Friday night facing a trip to ninth placed Connacht and must be wary of the fact Connacht have not lost at the Sportsground in 2013 and won this equivalent fixture last season. Fifth placed Scarlets will have a chance to catch up on the top four when they face Cardiff Blues on Saturday, knowing they have won their last 7 matches against the Blues in all tournaments. The final match of the round sees second placed Leinster breaking new ground when they take on Zebre at Stadio Citta del Tricolore in Reggio Emilia, Italy. It is the first time a RaboDirect PRO12 game has been played there, the game has been moved to the larger venue to help raise funds for victims of the earthquake that hit the region last year.

  • Rabodirect PRO12 : PREVIEW 2012/13
    RaboDirect PRO12 : PREVIEW 2012/13 Round 18: 22ND & 23RD March 2013 ROUND 18 PREVIEWS With just five rounds left to decide which teams will contest the Play-Offs, there is a new leader of the RaboDirect PRO12 with Glasgow Warriors taking over the mantle from Ulster, whilst for the fourth round in succession, Ospreys swapped places with Scarlets in the Play-Off Zone. Three of those teams are in action on Friday night; Ulster traveling to Edinburgh, Ospreys hosting Welsh rivals Newport Gwent Dragons, and Scarlets in Italy to face Zebre. Edinburgh can do their Scottish neighbours, Warriors, a favour if they can defeat Ulster however their record against the Ulstermen is not great. Meanwhile Ospreys and Scarlets must both be looking to come away with maximum points from opponents who are sitting at the wrong end of the table in their bids to reach the Play-Offs. The leaders, Glasgow Warriors, are not in action until Saturday, and are the only one of the potential Play-Off teams to face another side from the top half of the table when the visit Leinster at the RDS. Munster will also be looking for maximum points in the All-Irish clash against Connacht if they are to make a final push for the knockout stages. With just two points separating the top three teams in the table, whilst it is even closer for the final Play Off spot, there is definitely all to play for still as the RaboDirect PRO12 enters its closing stages. ROUND 18 FIXTURES Friday 22 March EDINBURGH RUGBY v ULSTER At Murrayfield, 7.30pm.

  • RD PRO12 Peview Round 9
    RaboDirect PRO12 PREVIEW 2012/13 Round Nine: 23rd – 25th November 2012 ROUND NINE PREVIEWS With the completion of their postponed Round 4 game against Zebre, Ulster have now pulled out a six points lead at the top of the RaboDirect PRO12 table. They are in action in Italy again on Friday night when they face Benetton Treviso at Stadio Monigo, and will be looking to extend their unbeaten record in the country as well as maintaining their 100per cent start to this season’s RaboDirect PRO12. Current RaboDirect PRO12 champions, Ospreys, are also in action on Friday night travelling to Murrayfield to play Edinburgh Rugby. Ospreys sit just outside the top four due to poorer points difference than Munster, should results go their way this weekend it could be the first time they have entered the Play-Off zone this season. The match of the day must be the encounter at Scotstoun where third placed Glasgow Warriors must overcome the reigning European champions, Leinster if they are to set a new Warriors record in this tournament of seven successive wins. The final game on Friday night is in Wales when Newport Gwent Dragons host Connacht. Both teams have had a mixed start to their seasons, and a win would be a welcome boost to their campaigns. The round concludes with two games on Sunday, Munster v Scarlets and Zebre v Cardiff Blues. After having narrowly missed out to Ulster last weekend, Zebre are still looking for their first win in the completion, and will be hoping Blues poor form continues for one more week.
