Re: Contract Situation

Ulster should target Jack Boyle from Leinster (a very promising youngster behind Porter, Healy and Milne) and sign an NIQ 9 or 10. They’d still have money to spare. In reality, Kitshoff was slightly better than Kitshoff around the park, but probably on a par in terms of scrummaging. Can't see Boyle...

34, starting for Bristol and seems he has another on his contract.
Did McGinty not buy the goat? One for you oldies out there.
Yes but that was his cousin Paddy.

34 year old MacGinty?

He suggested building a team around a 34 year old.

Absolute spoofer at times
We would also have to buy McGinty out of his contract. Pure nonsense.

Re: Ulster's finances

GAA has always been a bit of a free for all. I played it for many years. Lots of local rivalries. In fairness there was little or no sectarianism even though I was kicking the ball with the wrong foot.

Re: A little bit of politics folks`

I'm having trouble keeping up with the latest news from the NI Executive and Ulster Rugby. Do you think it would be a good idea to merge these two organizations into one? This could create some valuable synergies, especially if we involve people like Gerry Kelly and Sammy Wilson at Ravenhill. I beli...

Don’t think there were many stand out Ulster players this year. Lost all their interpro games.

No especially not against the Saffers. Andys a criminally underrated scrummager at LH but this would be ridiculous to swap him to TH especially when we need results and to give Murphy a fair go.
