Re: Rugby on the Box

The BBC NI contract for Ulster games in the URC is up in the Summer, interesting to see if they renew etc. Question at the forum suggested tv was impacting on attendances in person. Not sure if this is the case, but it would certainly be useful if the bbc tried to show more of the away games which ...

Re: Live Stream, Q & A Tuesday May 28

Whats the verdict on the event? I thought Hugh and Ritchie spoke well and I would have confidence in them both. The financial situation appears to have been allowed to get out of control, and for that petrie has to carry the blame. Not sure how he puts any kind of a positive spin on it at his next j...

Re: Other Champions / Challenge Cup

Superb game at a level ulster can only dream about. Doris's brain dead penalty was the killer for me. Maybe he was starting to believe his antics at the breakdown were invisible.

Re: Other Champions / Challenge Cup

Tmo got that wrong. Ball was on the ground but short. It was held up over the line following the 2nd shove. Communication failure as carly was confirming it ended up over the line but didn't see the grounding. Case of 2+2=5.

Surely if the stormers beat the lions then we are safe for 7th? Only one of benneton amd Edinburgh can pass us.

I just hope kok isn't a flop and that he will help stretch defences with good penetration into the line.

Ulster head to limerick with silverware on the line. Currently top of the interpro shield table and a win or connacht beating leinster secures it.

Re: Ulster v Leinster Saturday May 18 7:35pm TG4 / Premier Sports (UK) 1 / Premier Sports (Ireland) 1 / Super Sport / UR

Long way to go but we are at least pointing in the right direction. Great way to sign off the last home game of the year, and how many teams do the double over Leinster? Leinsters' strength in depth means they could field 2 URC top 8 quality teams. There is no other club in the world who could do th...

Should be a good game with relatively evenly matched teams. Just shows how far we have fallen behind when u look at what leinster are missing. Hopefully we can exploit their lack of playing time together but leinster still have enough to best us if they get into a rhythm.

Love to see Murphy back the youngsters over the old hands this week. Sheridan needs to start, I'd be tempted to put him at 6 alongside timoney and McCann. EOS, Herring, TOT, AOC, Treadwell, Sheridan, McCann, timoney, cooney, burns, stockdale, big stu, Addison, mcilroy, lowry. Stewart, Warwick, Wilso...

Re: Squad depth 2024/25

Addisons form of late combined with humes injury makes the decision to let him go look foolish in hindsight. He would have been in a weak position to negotiate salary wise so unless it was his decision he could have been offered another year relatively cheap.
