Re: Contract Situation
Sorry to be a downer on a Friday, but I’ve heard that the one rumour that I was hoping would prove to be unfounded in fact has legs… namely that in fact it is 12 contracts that are going, with the 12th being Stu [emoji30] Not a done deal yet but Ulster are expecting him to go. Looking forward to Pe...

Ulster's finances
I think there’s a lot of confusion around about Ulster / the IRFU / finances etc, leading IMO to this situation where while Ulster are definitely in a bit of a squeeze, it’s been blown out of all proportion, to the extent where I’ve been seeing people responding with surprise to the contract extensi...

Re: Autumn Internationals 2024
If correct, that’s good news as I never liked watching on Amazon. On a similar topic can anyone shed light on the URC contract with Viaplay? As I understand it Viaplay sold their sports coverage back to Premier Sports effective 2024. It’s 2024 now but I’ve heard nothing. So Viaplay/Premier Sports h...

Re: Dragons Pre Match Q&A with Jonny Petrie
Well they funded it with a loan - whether it’s a loan we have to pay back, or a ‘Munster loan’ remains to be seen!

Re: TRANSFER RUMOURS!!
Well it hasn’t been a great couple of weeks for online ‘ITK’-artists… Neil Fissler ended up with egg on his face when Huw Jones ‘done deal at Montpellier’ turned out to be ..er.. not done - I mention in passing that he is the source of the Kok rumour.. Also a rake of Munster rumours faltering, Galla...

Re: Dragons Pre Match Q&A with Jonny Petrie
On VAT I would very much like to know what he’s talking about - apart from anything VAT is levied in Ireland as well. I’m not an expert on VAT in the south but struggle to see why Ulster should be at any meaningful disadvantage. In the UK VAT will be due on the full selling price of tickets sold at...

Re: Dragons Pre Match Q&A with Jonny Petrie
Apologies, I quickly updated at halftime so the point on Flannery may have been open to misinterpretation. He said that Burns would be leaving but it wasn’t for him to disclose the destination to which someone replied ‘we already know where he’s going to’ and there was no response which I took as c...

Re: Dragons Pre Match Q&A with Jonny Petrie
Thanks Richard. As McCloskey is still under contract, then unless the IRFU were countenancing letting him leave for a transfer fee, I’d have thought he could have been a bit more categorical about him being around next year. I’d be a bit surprised if he left, now that he’s right in the Ireland mix. ...

Re: Team for Dragoons
For the week that’s in it, that’s a decent result - certainly played with the shackles off in attack as compared with the rest of the season, and it was a big loose but also pretty tasty at times and a reminder that we can play ball when we want to. On the flip side defence was very ordinary, especi...

About as optimistic as it's possible to be, Colum... but, hey, let's go for it! :fleg: :thumleft: I’ve just drank a tin of Boundary’s ‘You guys give up?’ (clocking in at 12.5%[emoji50]) and re-read what I wrote earlier, and I’m more convinced than ever!! 6 from 8 in the league, starting tomorrow ni...

Re: TRANSFER RUMOURS!!
I reckon they’ll keep him around to see if the Murphy appointment works out. You don’t want to bring a new face in and start with a blank slate, only for the rest of the season to blow up and Murphy have to scarper back to the 20s! If it works out all well and good replace him at their leisure. If i...
