Couldn't be more Ulster, all the Rs with a big NO at the end. It'll sound like a DUP rally.

Totally. He's a God nut who's always injured. Perfect on both accounts.

with locks 2mp, Treadwell, Hendy, AOC and two big SA ball carrying back rows we would certainly be better off, if only we get in some decent coaches and a big ball carrying loose head is great.

It is just so sad that if it does come to pass that RP after years of slow ball isn't here to exploit it!

Maybe if Allen Clarke would coach some of our looseheads how to take contact on their terms

Or was that what Joe was doing before he was hounded out?

Yes Russ totally
Nothing better than watching Callum Black truck it up,
Great leg drive, ball well protected, body shape angled perfectly for penetration hard yards made every time?

It is a tad telling that we went downhill after it was announced Joe was going

Good point Rooster
NEVER MOVE ON. Years on, I cannot ever watch Ireland with anything but indifference, I continue to wish for the imminent death of Donal Spring, the FIRFUC's executioner of Wee Paddy & Wee Stu, and I hate the FIRFUCs with undiminished passion.

Has someone been in touch with the Bulls yet to let them know if Botha signs he will get injured before the ink is even dry?

If he signs I will keep an eye on him in the SR.

He'd get us over the gainline alright, and has a bit of pace about him.
Well we'll just have to sit tight for a while and see what happens, but today might be a good day....indication of new coaches, and development at 9 and backrow.
