The current system doesn’t work like that anymore. In my opinion, each province should have only one foreign player. There are numerous talented youngsters who could benefit from moving between provinces, rather than investing in a high-profile non-Irish qualified player for a short stint.

Some chat/rumours on the official Facebook page of AOC leaving in the Summer despite being under contract for next season.

Fake news??

Likely bakebook BS. He wouldn't leave unless offered something better. I'm not sure that is likely.
I have my own tv channel, what have you got?

See Jasper Wiese moving on from Tigers, and Jason Jenkins moving on from Leinster with RG Snyman reportedly coming in. However unlikely either of those would be a perfect signing for this current pack imho

A quick search on X / Twitter points to Wiese joining the growing number of South Africans in Japan.

Yeah, have no doubt Jenkins will do something similar but would be the ideal profile

An alternative report links Wiese with Stade Francais, Jenkins would be a useful pick up for Ulster IF it was allowed and they could afford it.

Big, heavy second row, which we’re lacking, or a better big, heavy number 8 which we’re also lacking.

It’s not an easy decision so best stick with what we have!

Jenkins was poor at Munster and very average at Leinster. Is this the standard of player we should be targeting ?
We've had too many cast-offs.

He wouldn’t be my choice.

I’ve just seen Scott Penny and Max Deegan in the crowd watching Leinster v Sale.
Then I think of our starting back row for tonight. 😢

The comment is 16 hours old. It was written 16 hours ago. Seems ok to me. Let's see how it goes.

Delighted to be proved wrong last night. Didn’t expect Matty to have what was one of his best games in an Ulster shirt. Hope he keeps it up😀
