Re: URC 2022/23 - Other Sides
Some interesting discussion on Twitter about central contracts being disproportionately awarded to Leinster players, and how this feeds into a cycle of them not having to pay for their best players, freeing up huge sums to pay for the likes of Snyman, which in turn breeds success, while other provi...

Re: Bath v Ulster
Any chance Dublin asked us to start Stewart and O'Toole, or is it all on McFarland?

Re: URC: Ulster Rugby v Edinburgh Rugby Sat 2nd Dec 17:15
Dan's contract is until 2025, so basically 18 months, totally guessing but I would imagine he wouldn't be on more than £150k, or am I miles off?

Re: Scrums. What are they for?
I think if World Rugby has any interest in health and safety it wouldn't allow multiple forward substitutes late in a game, clearly a recipe for increased injuries.

Re: Glasgow v Ulster
Doak and McCloskey can't make the bench, Shanahan and Moxham are somehow better options! Guess we aren't targeting this fixture.

Re: Best Starting XV 2023/24
For the debateable positions: Tight Head has to be Moore, superior scrummager to TOT 2nd row, Sheridan as Treadwell simply isn't good enough. I could argue he was the worse 2nd row when we played Munster Scrum half Cooney, brings class and quick ball FB Moore on the assumption Addison will never be ...

Re: Ulster v Munster
With regards to Munster, would be interested to know if their debts are getting better or worse. Are we talking about the IRFU eventually writing off a debt, or will Munster eventually clear it.

Re: Ulster v Munster
There is talk of an Irish province signing Oli Jager from the Crusaders, would be surprised if it isn't Munster.

Re: Ulster v Munster
Our first team forwards plus Wilson won it in the end. Hendo, Herring, Ewers all made a big differences when they came on. They did. This was a great win. However, and not wanting to sound negative, we made the end far harder than it should have been. We shouldn't have needed a balls to the wall de...

Re: Ulster v Munster
Not sure I'm going to be able to watch much of this. Why Ulster wouldn't go for a lineout or even scrum when on Munster's line and Munster a man down. Why is the ref continuing to allow Munster to tackle people, literally tackle them near the ruck but not at the ruck. Not good.

Re: £900k in the hole 22/23
From Munsterfans forum. Pot kettle from a Province that had to be bailed out of debt by FIRFU and still hides its annual accounts. "Strangely enough after a couple of barron seasons following the Covid interrupted years, Ulster have somehow posted almost €1m losses for last season. This can no...

Re: Zebre Parma vs Ulster Sat 21st Oct KO 13:00
Off the pitch, is anyone at Ulster actually doing a good job? McGrath and French signed as academy has been awful for years, McFarland going for the Leicester job and continual odd selections, Bell useless, Petrie and Bryn awful.
