Re: Petries Answering Questions
Just read Petrie's interview in the BT, one thing that jumped out of me, was this in terms of the frozen pitch. We’ve never had anything like that before. We recognise there are things we could have done better. There are things that EPCR could have done better. I appreciate Ulster rugby's invitatio...

Re: Petries Answering Questions
For me the Academy is failing and not producing anything much bar the very odd exception .. was Henderson the last forward to make an Irish regular… You can bring 8 -16 in but if all are likely to be in a normal Job by 25 because they can’t make it at rugby is it the system or that fact that we simp...

Re: Petries Answering Questions
Decent attempt from BT better than expected but nothing effectively answered with just words with no substance… as for the weather around the La Rochelle game it wasn’t as bad as he suggested but the temperatures did drop early in the week and they where caught out badly. Turning the floodlights on ...

Re: Petries Answering Questions
So the La Rochelle debacle was a bit of ours and a bit of ERC but really nobodies fault … I though sacking all ground staff and not replacing them might have been a factor as well…

Re: Petries Answering Questions
I’m not sure the difference either but curious why the rest of the IFRU feels different afterall they are the paymaster and forking out over £1M for this…. Intriguing why they are proposing an infill that is now banned in the EU and seemingly refusing to consider any alternative.. only at UR could t...

Re: Petries Answering Questions
One thing I'd like to ask about is why we're going for a plastic pitch. Who is the driving force behind it and why we didn't go for one of the hybrid ones like Munster. It’s the way most club sides are going. Financial saving and a good surface regardless of weather. Higher tempo style of rugby pla...

Re: World cup squad
With Stockdale losing his central contract I would be surprised if he goes may depend on injuries yet to come.. Hendo well down the list.. Herring as they need 3 hookers

Re: Where do we go from here?
If we all change our expectaion to accepting that we are the 4th province, with players that maybe good enough but are actually don't care as much as the fans, then everyone will be happy... Its the fans fault for thinking we should be any good... Sack the fans! It’s the Ulster are Brill Brigade th...

Re: Where do we go from here?
A New forwards coach -- A change in out half and new attack coach and a new on field leader group McFarland is the head honcho! Some questions 1. Some is accountable for extending McFarland- who? 2. Has McFarland lost the dressing room? If the answer is yes then he has to go. 3. With him signing su...

Re: Ulster v Connacht
Just one question on top of those already highlighted. WHO decided to sub TMA for Milo at half-time? Yea want to know the same thing. Milasinovich got folded like a deck chair in the very first scrum and did nothing for the remainder of the half. Very first scrum he acted the big lad and pushed Buc...

Re: Ulster v Connacht
Some other sites alluding to trouble after the match in grounds and outside? Anyone any insight or just more innuendo to throw at us? Saw a pretty p#ssed off fan base but nothing to suggest a more malign turn? Crowd fairly quiet when exiting as far as I saw Interesting wasn’t aware but seen fans le...

Re: Ulster v Connacht
It's hard to express how disappointed I was leaving the ground on Friday night. You could tell from the first few physical exchanges that they appeared to more 'up for it' than our players. Forget about whinging about the ref - we were totally dominated at the breakdown from first minute to last. T...
