Re: 6 Nations 2023
Glad to see few Ulster players get a medal. Stuart deserves one. Hopefully he's on the plane to France.

You'll need to explain the t shirt to the youngsters, Merv.

Re: 6 Nations 2023
Sadly I feel he won't. Aki a card waiting to happen all day long, but they won't learn. Such a more deft, intelligent player. Expect a limited Ulster contingent at te RWC, even IF we do finish second in URC!
Hendo if fit, Herring, TOT, maybe Treadwell, but thats it. Anyone else will be due to injury or suspension, and none listed are first choice.
Exterminate all rational thought
Re: 6 Nations 2023
Hendy was ireland's 4th best lock in the tournament. He's not a patch on Tadgh Beirne and Baird offers far more impact off the bench.
Quite conceivable no ulster players in the main 23 come rwc time. Henshaw-Ringrose midfield.

Time for an NI team?
Callum Reid
Stewart
Kane
Hendy
Sheridan
McCann
Marcus Rea
Timoney (qualifies through his grandfather)
Doak
Jackson
Stockdale
McCloskey
Hume
Baloucoune
Lowry
*AOC and others would be eligible through residency.
**Propping would be an issue
***With loyalists now eligible to be fans, it would pay for itself.

Re: 6 Nations 2023
Henderson had a very good cameo vs Scotland and off the bench be France/Wales.
Poor enough vs Italy.

Without irfu mitts all over things, it would be a no brainer. A wonderful ginger axis half back pairing.Big-al wrote:Henderson had a very good cameo vs Scotland and off the bench be France/Wales.

Re: 6 Nations 2023
Rob also qualifies through his granda but maybe you've got him at 16?: "Herring qualifies for Ireland through his grandfather on his mother's side, who hailed from Belfast."Dave wrote: ↑Sun Mar 19, 2023 11:58 am Time for an NI team?

Re: 6 Nations 2023
For the record I wouldn't support a loyalist NI side. Same way I wouldn't support a republican ROI Sinn Fein side either.
Keep politics off this thread, please.

Re: 6 Nations 2023
On the anthems, Treaders didn't sing Amhrán na bhFiann. Maybe out of respect for the Nordies but his Wexford born ma might have been disappointed.
Rob, being a truer son of Ulster, also didn't and TOT went for a half arsed ventriloquist version
