Hi DM,

The following example is v9 iRule of something that may be close what you are looking for: 

 
 when HTTP_REQUEST { 
  if {[HTTP::uri] eq "/blah" } {  
      HTTP::header insert "ClientIPAddress" [IP::client_addr] 
      pool poolA 
  } elseif{ [HTTP::uri] eq "/blahblah" } { 
     persist cookie insert "Blah_poolb_Cookie" "0d 00:30:00" 
     pool poolB 
  } 
 }

or via the SWITCH command 

 
 when HTTP_REQUEST { 
    switch -glob [HTTP::uri] { 
      "/blah" {  
               HTTP::header insert "ClientIPAddress" [IP::client_addr] 
               pool poolA 
                 } 
       "/blahBlah" { 
               persist cookie insert "Blah_poolb_Cookie" "0d 00:30:00" 
               pool poolB 
                       } 
       
    } 
 }

I hope this helps
