Re: TRANSFER RUMOURS!!
The FH issue for me is it looks like Doak is the 10 going forward, no 10 moving north. Issue is Doak wants to start in 1 position, Cooney is 34, so potentially will be replaced in 1/2seasons, meaning another switch for Doak to 9? It’s a mess. No one cheap import is gonna help this mess, far too much...

Re: TRANSFER RUMOURS!!
Why is Cruden without a club? Is he that bad nowadays? Pretty sure the narrative around him was he was injury prone, and that was a good few yrs ago. I’d have major major concerns around his conditioning and durability for the pro game at his age. Hopefully it’s just gossip. I very much doubt Irfu ...

Re: TRANSFER RUMOURS!!
I’ll be very interested to see what happens at UR in the off season. There should definitely be an overhaul but what if any will be the replacements. Bell should go. Soper has unfortunately shown nothing for me as an attack coach. Newby is going skills have been poor. Then the squad - no way this cu...

Re: The Decline of Ferris
To be fair it shows in stark terms how far UR has fallen, it’s a damning indictment.
Fair play McCloskey for calling it out. It’ll be a tough few yrs to rebuild. We were a long way behind in the power stakes. We are yrs away for being genuine contenders against any good power sides.

Re: Montpellier v Ulster, Sunday April 7 12:30pm KO (UK Time), Viaplay Sports
A very strange game. That said any kind of win in France is a v good result - I certainly wasn’t expecting one. This season is a right off for me. It’s all an investment into pup development for next season when for me they drive that pack forward. Wilson McCann Sheridan have been so impressive for ...

Re: Kits Off
I’d like to think it was B. Ultimately at LH he isn’t going to dramatically change UR fortunes on the pitch and he’s on big money. Absolutely no point keeping an unsettled player. No way should UR be financially subsidising any return to SA. Will the saved contract money be reinvested? I think a lot...

Can we save ourselves some serious cash and leave SK in Cape Town?

Re: Richie Murphy - right man for the job?
I think it’ll be fascinating how the coaching dynamic will work. Murphy has already thrown his hat in the ring for the job permanently, and mentioned looking for houses in Belfast….not just a diplomatic “let’s see where we are end of the season” and lots of stakeholders involved in the process stuff...

Re: TRANSFER RUMOURS!!
I think he could become a bit of a cult hero With the crowd. Player wise he’s very combative, great aggressive attitude to boot. He’s a good un for me.
Frankly does anyone have a definitive squad for next season? WK has that utility side to him, which is likely needed with our injury profile.

Re: New Signing - Werner Kok
Nice and aggressive. 100% makes most of the talent he’s got, which I think will be good for training standards. He’s a good signing for me, as long as he can stay fit.

Re: Contract Situation
Could understand on paper with Ewers playing profile could be beneficial BUT ultimately his legs have gone those 200+ prem games have added up, and he wasn’t the fastest anyway to start with.
It’ll be interesting what Murphy does with them til end of season.

Re: 6 Nations 2024
16pts…..the same as 4 non bp wins. With the away fixtures to fr/eng, this is the trickier of the 2 fixture routes. Eng/ire can ultimately be traced back to set piece, breakdown, and power. Ire had an unstable slow platform that stopped/disrupted their strike moves, and badly effected their fast mult...

Re: TRANSFER RUMOURS!!
WK whenever I’ve seen him gives 100%, plays with real intensity, and has an edge to him. Might be a v decent signing if the finances work, and push standards off the pitch. SMcC would be turning his back on Ire selection, although he may be 4th choice, he is featuring fairly regularly for ire the la...
