Re: AIL Energia Leage Rugby/Ulster League

Quite a few clubs across the board have lots of players away on holidays, weddings, stag dos and all that. Wouldn’t be reading anything much into scores in next few weeks.

What was the score last week when clogher were at home to Armagh? Clogher didn’t post the result on their socials.

Re: AIL Energia Leage Rugby/Ulster League

Watched the queens game at the weekend. Without whole first team AIL squad. Ballyclare played Queens 2s
See clogher well beaten by Armagh at clogher although score not reported on Clogher Facebook. Armagh fielded 35 players in the game. They look to have recruited well this off season.

Burke touting about the place and Hinch bought him in, even Instonians couldn’t afford him. A good prop is hard to find😆😆

Re: Any word on the Academy?

There are some excellent coaches in the regional schools, unfortunately the programmes, facilities and player numbers are not of the same standard of the top 6. The coaches at youth club level however are not, through no fault of their own. As for the CCROs... Nice idea executed poorly. I would lov...

Re: Any word on the Academy?

As previously stated on this thread - Plenty of positives given the opposition and their representative standard coupled with Ulsters age profile and having 2 Irish lads away. Also now an annual fixture I believe. Let’s see how the 18s and 19s do in inter pros. Those on this thread giving negative r...

Re: Squad depth 2024/25

Zach Ward is in with Ulster upon his return, likely to be offered a contract. Position wise likely to be in the backline. Nonsense. He’s already had his chance and blew it, and wasn’t good enough for Worcester. Why would he then be good enough for us? All his 15s rugby has been in the back row too ...
