Re: Ospreys away Sunday 18th Feb 3pm

How many kickable penalties did we pass over to kick the ball into the corner with limited success? One of those penalties would have won the game

Re: Ospreys away Sunday 18th Feb 3pm

I wasted good money to sit in the stands and watch that humiliation of a performance. Lead by donkies. I watched McFarland standing out on the pitch before hand while the players warmed up. He was 50 metres away standing scratching himself as if he fartêd and didn't want to share the smell. Fêck off...

Re: Ospreys away Sunday 18th Feb 3pm

Nice mild day here in Swansea. Good conditions but ball will be greasy. Small crowd so far. I hear Ospreys are leaving stadium and moving to either Neath or Bridgend.

Re: URC 2022/23 - Other Sides

Rumoured to be signing Connacht's Tom Daly as well. Shameful how they are allowed to pick off squad members from other provinces by offering them more money. Kilgallen was born in Kildare. Soon there will be more Leinster players on Munster team than from their own province. Provinces aren't allowe...

Re: URC 2022/23 - Other Sides

Munster have signed the winger Kilgallen from Connacht on a 2 year deal. Rumoured to be signing Connacht's Tom Daly as well. Shameful how they are allowed to pick off squad members from other provinces by offering them more money. Kilgallen was born in Kildare. Soon there will be more Leinster play...

Re: Contract Situation

I'm assuming down to Competitions Management Committee is all about the amateur game, and those below are either professional and amateur, or both? Is there a Club Committee and a Clubs Committee, or is that a typo? If we have a finance committee, and A Robinson is an employee with the title Head o...

Re: Ospreys away Sunday 18th Feb 3pm

Back in action this weekend for the 1st time since the harlequins debacle. Expect to get stockdale and Stewart back, but unlikely to get any others. Important game in the context of top 8 qualification, will we see a change in fortunes or has the ship been fatally damaged? Definite change in fortun...

Re: 6 Nations 2024

Thought Larmour was our worst player, came on and seemed to make mistake after mistake. Nash appears to have taken his opportunity, but after him and Lowe there aren't many wingers putting their hands up. Also thought Byrne was poor when he came on. The Ulster guys played pretty well, if understate...

Agreed - made 3 tries with lovely offloads!
Aside from his debut,when he was thrown to the wolves and scapegoated for a couple of years afterwards, he's never let Ireland down.

Re: Contract Situation

Go visit the Ulster website. Look at the photograph of some 48 Blazers with an average age of 70+. Put your hand on your heart and say " this is the future of Ulster Rugby". Do we need 48 of them? Oh congratulations to Ulster Rugby for putting a token female in the group. Rumn's comments ...

Re: Contract Situation

But for the" blazers " most rugby clubs would cease to exist most are volunteers unpaid who devote many hours to enable the game to exist at club level -- many are competent networkers but there are a few who are there for the ego trip. Post matches dinners are either paid for in advance ...

Re: Contract Situation

The solution to the blazer problem is quite simple. Amateur and professional rugby should be totally divorced from each other Let the blazers continue to play happy families with club rugby. But they should have zero input in the professional game As for female representation on the existing rugby c...
