Re: Women's rugby
Another really disappointing loss for Ireland yesterday. It was probably the most frustrating game of this campaign so far as there were 4+ try opportunities squandered. In three games, Ireland have only scored a single try under their own steam (they got a penalty try yesterday). Their most dangero...

Re: URC 2022/23 - Other Sides
They've forgotten how to lose.

Re: Contract Situation
Surely some of the lads coming through from U20s over the last couple of seasons will make it? Last year's U20s it was all forwards.

Re: Women's rugby
More tinkering in the Ireland back line for this week against Italy - 3 changes to the backs who played against France a fortnight ago. This graphic from RugbyKino shows how stark the differences between two squads are in terms of experience. Neve Jones, Sadhbh McGrath, Brittany Hogan and Vicky Irwi...

Re: Big World of Rugby
Well saying you ‘don’t give a f***’ about woman’s rugby is an unnecessarily crass way to put it, it is also true of the rugby-viewing population at large… this is the unfortunate truth that women’s rugby advocates keep bumping into. The real world isn’t anything like rugby twitter or the BBC - wher...

Re: Big World of Rugby
The absolute state of these comments. Demonstrating Jetstream's point precisely. This forum is a man's club where women are derided, dismissed and ignored ("Andy Brace thought he'd get away from the wife but has to listen to Joy Neville in his ear, har har, insufferable women", and STILL h...

Re: Leinster VS Ulster HC QF 01/04/23
We don't have a specialist attack coach - bound to have an impact.

Re: Leinster VS Ulster HC QF 01/04/23
Efforts definitely are being made with "less traditional rugby schools" being involved in Bowls, Plates, Trophies etc, but these take time, coaching and investment. There is the club Academy programme which aims to encourage players who have left school to play club rugby against teams of ...

Re: Weemen's Rugby
Really disappointing result. Wales just that bit further on in terms of professional rugby. McGrath showed huge character up against the eventual POTM Tuipulotu, to turn the scrum around. O'Brien and Nic A Bháird added some much-needed spark in the second half. Very inexperienced squad with just und...

Anybody know who got MOTM? I'm guessing JTA? Doak but for me Burns was a close 2nd. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Thought Doak was head and shoulders our best player followed by McCann, then Rea, then Burns, then JTA. Any idea when Baloucoune and Lyttle are back? We’ll need one of them for the...

Re: Cardiff v Ulster Saturday 4th March 7:35pm Viaplay Sports 1 / URC TV / Super Sport
What about Hopes? Usually when an u19 forward plays for the u20 he has something about him. Ulster need more props, particularly at 3. If Wilson can hold his own at scrum there is a position for him. We’re playing Milo and Warwick (out of position) there for goodness sake. Likewise McCormick, a squ...

Re: Glasgow Vs Ulster Fri 17th Feb @ 7.45pm Viaplay Sports 1
The loss of Payne has been huge and is really coming to light. His rugby intelligence was second to none and I can see him going on to have a coaching career similar to Rog. I remember James Hume said in an interview last season that Payne was his biggest influence and his rugby intelligence is phe...

Re: Sat Jan 21 8pm Ulster v Sale BT Sport 2 / beIN SPORTS / SuperSport / FloRugby
Will ravenhill turn up this week? Atmosphere was brutal v Munster. The crowd have definitely been more reserved but it's a chicken and egg scenario. The crowd need something to celebrate, other than stockdale catching a high ball. We aren't like the soccer fans who have nothing to celebrate save oc...
