Not the worst shout I’ve ever heard, whether that’s even on some kind of standby basis or what have you.
Still only 32.
As of last Saturday, TOT, Moore and Wilson were all injured so I hope Kyle hasn’t gone on his hols yet!
Most Academy props conspicuous by their absence from the game today.

Re: Squad depth 2024/25
Told to save a million apparently. Luckily, there must still be some money left to keep Shanners and Matty Rea. I wouldn't put Shanahan in the Matty Rea category. He's a decent player and value for money third option at 9. He rarely has a bad game, and the game speeds up when he's on. Honestly, he'...

Newby 2024.
Not certain about Soper but the general chat pointed to next year.

Re: Squad depth 2024/25
The best thing Murphy has done so far is to try Izzy at 6, echoing, to an extent, Baird and Ahern at Leinster and Munster respectively (although Soper was first to try something similar here by leaving McCann out wide in his solitary game in charge). Big Stu didn’t say much of note on the Rugby Pod ...

Re: Squad depth 2024/25
The correct answer is that the decision to let him go was entirely logical at the time, due to question marks over his fitness and the financial constraints, but in the light of Hume’s injury and Addison’s decent showings in recent games, especially at 13, it would have been handy to keep him for an...

I believe so. Could have come to an agreement, with the lad ...

Re: Squad depth 2024/25
I thought EOS had a great game on Saturday against the Scarlets. He played for the full 80 minutes and had a thundering run at the end of the first half - only to be taken down by a flying drop kick from Gareth Davies. I thought he scrummage well as well. I'm pleased he is staying - he looks to be ...

Re: Any word on the Academy?
I was at the game at Bedford Blues in 2018.
Marcus Rea was excellent for half an hour before going off injured.
It remains the best thirty minutes I’ve seen him play.

Fly half right?
He’s actually Austrian I believe so Big-Al could have got behind him.

Re: Any word on the Academy?
If one can believe the online gossip, we were trying to sign Munster Schools Cup winning captain and number 8 Eanna McCarthy but he’s joining Connacht.

Tom O'Toole and Sean Reffell's availability for selection will be assessed through the week. Club captain, Iain Henderson, had toe surgery yesterday. He is now expected to be sidelined for approximately three months. James Hume (knee) also had surgery yesterday and he will enter a period of rehab f...

Re: Any word on the Academy?
Don’t think Murphy will be our 10, he was average enough at u20 level and looks a bit small, not a good omen for stepping up to pro rugby. If Ulster sign Aidan Morgan he will be in the driving seat and could well be out flyhalf for the next decade. I do agree on McKillop, an out her big blindside f...
