I thought he'd missed that.
Flip me another final against Lenister. We'll have to up our game for next week.

Time for a big drink of tighten up juice.
A good few lessons to learn — seems like we regressed. Eddie Jones is a hateful bar steward

Re: RACING 92 V ULSTER Saturday 20th OctKO:18.30 TV: BT

Scrum over powered, but that happens
Handling good, but gradually degraded
Line out complete tom kite

The fact we scored when we went down to 14 is fantastic. The way we gradually fell apart was disappointing but not surprising.

Shoulder to Shoulder

Did anyone else watch that documentary by your fella from down the road ? I wouldn't pay for BT, but managed to see it via other means. Got to say some of it was interested but overall I found it a bit shallow. I'm possibly to easily offended, but he seemed to be saying he doesn't understand why us ...

Ideally they would head to Leinster and then we could have a few articles written about how they are propping up the blues

Re: Munster V Ulster Sat 29th Sept 7:15

So the stats for the season show we have been passing the ball more than any other team. So why are we so poor at creating gaps in the opposition defence. Is it lack of formidable forwards to suck in defenders, or do we just not have any attacking plays ?

Re: Replacement 10

Irish Times reporting that the IRFU are still seeking an Irish solution to the no. 10 posistion, but it’s not one of Munsters, Madigan or Steenson. I take this to mean they are searching for a SH player with Irish grandparents. We also might get a shot at destroying Farrells coaching reputation. htt...

Re: Replacement 10

Carbery set to be announced as going to Munster on a THREE year deal. So I guess Ulster announcement imminent. Fair play to Munster for having the stones to knock any one year loan horlix on the head. On another note it says a lot that Joseph Carbery would rather spend three years in turnipstan tha...

Indo reporting gibbes might bring pj with him to NZ. Be a good move for a season, then perhaps pick up a s15 contract. Sent from my SM-G935F using Tapatalk If PJ makes to to NZ and plays for 1-2 years it has the potential to make him a better player than he ever may have become here. Natural talent...

Re: Ulster V Ospreys SDC Qualification

So it’s be more of this till Jan until our new coach arrives. He will then preside over a loosing streak and quit due to family reasons just in time for us to hire another coach for the following season. 2020 could be our year!

Re: Replacement 10

If Joey wants to commit his future to Ulster, then I’d be happy to see him give it a shot. If Joey, Leinster or the IRFU want to put him here for 12-24 months to get game time , just so that he can play or Ireland/return to Leinster when sexton is done, then forget it. I’d rather see a NIQ play at a...

Standup for the basketcases

Following in from Conney last week it’s nice to see Stockdale not afraid to defend his own. BoD and Darcy are asses, but collectively they have helped galvanise players and supporters. So I think the comments are pretty unfair - in terms of within the club and in terms of the players there is absolu...

Re: ARE WE JUST GOING TO MEEKLY ACCEPT THIS?

I agree with most on here, a walk out would send a message, but is also unlikely to happen. I think both IRFU and Ulster have factored into account we are approaching the end of the season and relying on the fact this will blow over pretty soon. Equally as many of us can stop going to Ireland games ...

Re: Who will decide

I assume after the initial review, the IRFU will proceed to check the private messages of every player to ensure they haven’t made any sexist, racist or other ill advised comments in private. Possibly they will strip a few caps from BOD if it turns out he once sent a text about PoC ma. Either way I ...
