Re: Ireland world cup games 2023
McCarthy is a lot like Henderson I think, very good at disrupting mauls, and a big lump of a fella.

Re: Any word on the Academy?
We should have one of the best youth systems about by now considering we have had a decade now with a free stadium which is a big money generator compared to before. And unlike others who only rent/are in big debt. Instead, we've blown the loot on expensive journeymen and still have gotten nowhere....

Re: 2023 world cup
Totally agree with you Rum, the referee had too much influence on the game. I guess that might advantage Ireland

Re: AIL Energia Leage Rugby/Ulster League
Carrick, Instonians and Ballyclare fielding an additional adult male team this season. Testament to the hard work that goes on at youth level and the social element of the clubs. Guys play rugby with their mates and have fun. Few beers after a hard game still has massive value. Thanks, it is a good...

Re: AIL Energia Leage Rugby/Ulster League
Did I hear the three teams are fielding additional teams this year, Instonians, Carrick and whoever Carrick were playing, it might have been Ballyclare? Is it good news or are they taking players from other clubs?

Re: 2023 world cup
Utterly ridiculous that All Blacks v South Africa starting shortly isn't on Amazon with all the other pre World Cup matches, world rugby doesn't give a toss about the average fan. Free on sky sports mix. Thanks Jean, completely missed this! Sounds like South Africa were dominant, a 7-1 bench certai...

Re: Any word on the Academy?
You could be a good prospect but still only be a squad player like McIlroy/Lyttle. If you have brains and going and studying a good degree then you’d be better getting into a well paid career instead of being a squad player for ulster maybe earning 80k-100k for 10 years and then having to start all...

Re: Are we allowed to talk about KINGSPAN
Frankly I'm glad UR are happy to partner with Kingspan, it isn't as if the company is rotten to the core. I've had enough of this cancel culture, of both Kingspan, SO & PJ and many others, people do make mistakes and that shouldn't destroy the rest of their lives.

Re: Petries Answering Questions
Once Petrie appoints the coaches, with Bryn there does Petrie really make any decisions on the professional side of Ulster Rugby? The question what is your biggest achievement in the past 5 years is an embarrassment of an answer, can he not even give specific things that he himself has achieved for ...

Re: Petries Answering Questions
Remember when every Heineken Cup match was hugely anticipated and easily a sellout, rugby just isn't as exciting any more as a product never mind Ulster's version of it

Re: Petries Answering Questions
Why was McFarland given such a long deal (or even a deal at all) when you are fully aware of the players not liking/rating him? Why is McFarland allowed to be a control freak within every area of the organisation? Why aren’t journalists allowed free reign when asking questions or writing articles? ...

What do you actually do that quantifiably justifies your salary and takes 50 hours a week of work?
