Red hot favourite to win 10/11.

Jared Payne not in the leaving list at Scarlets, so another "rumour" / idea put to bed.

HB ain’t coming to UR, just can’t see it. The IRFU have zero reasons to block an NIQ 10 from UR. DH is going to have to ruffle some feathers. As an aside - let’s just remember in this shitshow it’s forced our hand to expose McCann Wilson Sheridan and now Izzy. I see JP is now back focusing on d at ...

Sure but I’d cut him some slack on that, in the unlikely event he was actually given a top 8 mission. Think Glos have won 14 out of 14 in the Cups this season so I haven’t entirely given up on them either. Indeed Glaws was a classic Jekyll and Hide side, can't beat eggs in the Premiership / not try...

Connacht have signed Ben Murphy scrum half from Leinster, so good chance Michael McDonald will return to the Ulster squad next season.

No justice is there?

As long as he is not in Llanelli, Mr Gnecchi on the whistle.

No official Ulster casualty update yet, but BBC reporting Herring, Stewart Moore, Stockdale and Shanners all good to go for Saturday in a must win game.

Indeed and Byrne is off to Cardiff, they are hardly flushed with cash. Interesting to know if any of the provinces actually made enquiries for him.

Ulster have lost Kitshoff and O'Sullivan's deal is up in Summer with no news of a renewal, prop shortage.

Word is Murphy is head coach with Payne coming back as an assistant Excellent! We need a scrum/forwards coach maybe? Does Murphy take the attack role? Grant is the forwards coach? But yes need a scrum coach, Dan did it and Fogarty from the Irish Coaches has been / is coming up for a day or two / we...

Connacht Rugby are delighted to announce the signing of Piers O’Conor from Bristol Bears for the 2024/25 season. The Irish-qualified 28-year old joins after a six-year spell in Bristol where he amassed 132 appearances and 35 tries. He played a major role in a period of success for the Premiership si...

Stormers bringing the Springboks with them on their last NH tour of the regular season, play Dragons in R16 and Connacht in R17.
