Re: Other Champions / Challenge Cup

Joy Neville hanging up her whistle. She was a good referee but a poor TMO I hope she becomes a commentator. , I think she has got a job in World Rugby overseeing referees. We need more female commentators. !!!!!!!! Did you hear Ferris's colleague last Saturday? ! Torrent, incessant, irritating, ......

Re: Clermont v Ulster, Saturday April 13 12:30pm (UK Time) TNT Sports - Actual Channel TBC

A number of years ago Ulster Rugby invited two club representatives of every club,on a phased basis, up to Belfast to watch a match. They had some food and drink before hand with a mix of Branch officials and visiting team officials .It was a great idea and much appreciated How is that a great idea...

Agreed, if they are good enough, then they are old enough. Another outcome of the "blazer" generation mantra that so and so will be better next year etc. Not always true. We need to be better at spotting the good " grow-your-owns". We have kept some too long who are not going to ...

34, starting for Bristol and seems he has another on his contract.
Did McGinty not buy the goat? One for you oldies out there.
And Delaney bought the donkey?!

Yes but that was his cousin Paddy.

Re: Montpellier v Ulster, Sunday April 7 12:30pm KO (UK Time), Viaplay Sports

Well, JR, I knew what you meant!! re Doak, as a 9 he is average. Good goal kicker, long accurate pass.........but slow , in passing and in movement. as a 10, who knows, but if he'd shown any real potential, FIRFU would have shown more interest before now. Hasn't even reached tackle bag holding status.

Re: Kits Off

Signing a quality LHP or THP is what good teams do to become great teams imo. Like I can see why Leinster might break the bank to sign Kitshoff if they didn't have both Porter and Healy (and probably a few other decent ones further down in the pecking order). We needed a whole upgrade across the pa...

Presumably not an April Fool and our World Cup winner is leaving citing travelling back and forth to his family as a reason.. Presumably we didn’t pay him mileage or allow him to collect Air Miles..
