Re: Petrie departs…..
At that level its not what you know its who you know ! Petrie was fine choice when Logan went there was too much sh!T for a local face . But he lacks local network necessary at this time .

Re: Richie Murphy - right man for the job?
Jackman is a stirrer and sitting behind Crawley won't improve his chances neither would the fact it is a one year contract. The damage in his remark is that it may dissuade players to come to Ulster although the fact remains Burns ,when he signed for Ulster was promised ? an Irish Cap which he got, ...

Re: 6 Nations 2024
English commenters are a real pain in the R/s
There are few playing their last season I think and Capt I’m not sure how much Lowe has improved he keeps his place for his kick and catch game most of his trys are close to being walk overs

Re: 6 Nations 2024
Of the three second rows last week Henderson was the one or sorted out the line out but did get blown twice -- once from a weak pass from Murray and the second was a 'homer" decision. In my Opinion Henderson fails the age test will he be there at the next world cup -- I wouldn't bet on it . Wil...

Re: 6 Nations 2024
The first English try was down to Lowe his clearance kick was to predictable and his failure to find touch allowed England to instigate a preplan play -- a run across the field to wards the retreating English backline focusing on the far side of the pitch a pass to a player who with two players outs...

Re: Contract Situation
Yes players can go beyond 30 but they need to go injury free . Being injury free is harder for backs and most backs start to lose pace at 30 and thus not the players they were and the professional game gets harder . There is the added factor of marriage as you get older and the need to think long te...

Re: Dragons Pre Match Q&A with Jonny Petrie
It could well be a loan made on the possible donation to rugby which could be due after sums have been donated to GAA and Football in respect of Stadium upgrade. Ie if a donation is made to Rugby the loan gets repaid. now the question is it interest free or not . repayment to Dublin being capital + ...

Re: Contract Situation
Re McCloskey he is 31 or thereabouts which means realistic 2 years playing provided he is injury free. Two years to maximise his income - the IRFU can’t invest money in a two year player whose best years may be behind him and injuries in front of him . The decisions on contracts are made in Dublin w...

Re: The skipper
He could make a very good Capt but only as a member of a leadership group Eg early in the match against the dragons Ulster had an easy penalty in front of the post but went for the corner . Not a bad idea against the dragons maybe but The opportunity would have given Ulster a two score lead without ...

Re: Team for Dragoons
Now I'm not quite as pessimistic as some here . In my opinion Ulster may note may have the beginnings of a decent back row in one -two years There is also a possible second row again in one to two years and the backline is still young . The problem with the second row may be that it may be light wei...
