Re: Contract Situation

See a job advert for a conditioning coach. Perhaps this explains the Shape some players are in. Who is doing this at present?

Re: Petrie departs…..

I think tector is the most likely to seek a move from leinster. Both byrnes are getting into ireland squads where they are and prendergast is the heir apparent who will be given the opportunity to oust both in the next 2 years. Tector will have limited opportunities bar a few sub appearances in low ...

TOT confirming he is looking to play both sides of scrum. If we can get Wilson up to speed before marty quits then it may not be a bad idea. After Saturday he may not want to come up against a SA front row at tight head for a while. https://www.the42.ie/ulsters-tom-otoole-reveals-plans-to-adapt-to-n...

Re: Sharks v Ulster Saturday 23rd March 1pm Kick Off Viaplay Sports

I know it is hot but this game is at sea level and we seem to be running through treacle. We can't expect any improvement in a weeks worth of training but the players are still making stupid mistakes which are not down to poor coaching.

I see Murphy hasn't had a chance to run many ball carrier support drills. Soo frustrating.

Looking forward to this. First outing in front of a new head coach, there will be no lack of effort or concentration to impress. Sharks will be up for it but seem to be worst coached team in SA. If we survive the physical battle we should have the better cohesion and put points on the board.

Missed that Rob Herring is in the travelling squad. Does this mean he is recovered from injury or is he included to get a spin to see the extended family?

Re: Richie Murphy - right man for the job?

It is rumoured that scrum coach John Fogarty is with the squad to assess whether TOT can be switched to loose head. To cover this experiment Andy Warwick will be switched to the tight head side. Is it fair that in what are important league matches for Ulster, Farrell and FIRFU are using us as an ex...
