I think you’re drastically overrating Burns positive impact on then Ulster game.

FFFS :duh:

Re: Team for Dragoons

I thought I'd take a quick look to see what the great unwashed thought of that nonsense last night. Anyone seeing that as positive needs to shed the blinkers, The greatest stat of the night is that Ulster allowed a team of dustbins who had scored 17 tries in 10 league matches to score a TBP away fro...

Re: 2023 world cup

QF and home, tough crap Paddies. Great to see Sexton taking defeat like a man, having to be held back by Conan. God I'm glad to see the back of the churlish swine. He's no Paddy Jackson you know. Hopefully South Africa will blatter England and NZ to retain the Cup. I do love their style of play and ...

Re: 2023 world cup

Big Duane starts against France. By far the best news of the day. Given I haven't a solitary feck to give about the Bogmen, it is a great delight to me to see Duane given the opportunity to either be his magnificent self and duff up a few Grenouilles or alternatively, go out with his boots on as hi...

Re: Nevin Spence: Always With Us

Another year passes, 11 now. Though he may well not have been the one to coin it, it was in 1395 that Geoff Chaucer wrote: Time and tide wait for no man. My Ulster Brethern do not put off till tomorrow what you can do today - tomorrow you may not have the chance, as my old Latin Master Mr. Ross ofte...

Re: End of the road for Dan??

Why, oh why? :scratch: A question I ask myself every time I look here. Let me explain the facts of life: • Poorly resourced financially compared to most teams in France, certainly Leinster, maybe others, I don’t have figures. • Poorly resourced in terms of rugby infrastructure compared to all big te...

Re: Bryn what do I do?

The loss of Payne was because of Dan. He wanted attack coach and Soper got it. Perhaps, he felt threatened by his standing in the Ulster squad? Payne was no loss at all, lacking mental acumen. He singlehandedly cost Ulster there best chance of winning the ERC in 2014 with utter stupidity after less...

Re: Bryn what do I do?

Get McCall and Humphreys back, at least they have something on their CVs. Sent from my Pixel 7 using Tapatalk Yes Jackie, nothing on Bryn's CV other than ERC winners medal and League Winner's medal. Most players who have played for Ulster can better that pof course. >EW :lol: :lol: :lol: Not aiming...

Re: Where do we go from here?

Toulouse last year involved a massive performance away from home, when we really cut loose and stuck it up to them. When can you say we have done the same since? Maybe 1st half away to Leinster C's in November, before we sh!t the bed. At least if we had some gutsy performances to cheer, that'd be a...

Re: Where do we go from here?

Where we go from here, unfortunately is almost 6 months with no proper rugby. Unless one is a FIRFUCs lacky , or like me, a fan of Saffer rugby and hoping to see them retaining the RWC, the next 6 months is of very little interest. Some interesting thoughts from allcomers on this thread, however non...

Re: Ulster v Connacht

I hate using refs as an excuse so I won't, however I always find rugby more enjoyable when both teams are reffed the same way.

For any hitmen reading, I'm considering a contract on Neck. >sniper

Re: Contract Situation

Santa I understand Shinnerboots will be player coach next season, in Ulster but not at Ulster.
Addison? What a player, what a disappointment. Surely too expensive per game to offer a new contract?

Re: Ulster v Connacht

Complete and utter misunderstanding of how things work, China, the venue that needed an inspection on matchday to comply with World Rugby laws was Ravenhill, the prior moving of the game is what was outrageous and where the FIRFUCs should have had Ulster's back, however, they only had time for Mexic...
