Re: Humphreys set to leave Ulster for Premiership

The least Connacht could do for us is send Nikora. After all we got them in the HEC and are letting them keep Faloon, Anderson, McCrea and hopefully NOC. NOC and TJ are tom kite and McCrea has been injured all season. You were delighted to get rid of them. Faloon looks like he has lost it . Plus, w...

Re: Humphreys set to leave Ulster for Premiership

Getting NOC off the books would be a good move for us He'll be 3rd/4th choice 10 next season and being on a full contract is a pure waste for us because we need to maximise our budget and are short in 3/4 positions. Elwood was loyal to him for alot of the season, he had some decent outings, was supe...

Re: Back to Bread & Butter - Connacht Match

What was up with Michael Swift going completely psycho on Stevenson? Repeated elbows to the back of his head in a maul, then he hauls him out punches him and Stevenson throws one punch back both carded and penalty against us?? Stevenson lifted him off the ground in the maul and carried him which da...

Re: Connacht and Elwood.

By that he means Eric Elwood Not a ringing endorsement for Elwood, and it would have some credence seeing as he's still in contact with most of the players. Have to say I'm a bit disappointed by that have a lot of time for Elwood. Great players don't always make great coaches but it struck me that ...

Re: Positives & Negatives: Ulster V Connacht

personnally running over a player is a bigger statement of intent than running round him, it's the psychological effect it has on the opposition players and also the lift if gives to fellow players and supporters alike....remember last year against Biarritz at Ravers, Ferris receives the kick off a...

Re: Two Sides to this Argument - But to get the Balance Righ

Yeah I know I said I wouldn't be back, but this is a sensible worthwhile debate. On the same day, Kevin Myers in the Indo described Lord Mountbatten as a "vain, egotistical, inept, brutal & deceitful psychopath, who deserved to die in his own filth". I realise this couldn't be much fu...
