New Signing - Werner Kok

We often complain - and rightly so - that Ulster need a bit of niggle and aggression. Kok is a fierce player. Centre or wing - hopefully he brings a bit of dog to the team.

Re: Contract Situation

Stu should take the job and enjoy his last few years of rugby and add a few £££ to his post career fund. He owes Ulster nothing, owes Ireland even less, with the next few years of 'rebuilding' ahead he'd be better out of it. Bayonne, they live, eat breathe and bleed rugby down there - a cracking opp...

Re: Dan’s Not the Man.

I think Ulster need to be bold and ditch the lads that aren't performing at the minute, or have spent more time on the physio table than on the pitch. Ewers might come good, but he may not. He has had limited opportunity granted, but we don't need another sick note in the squad. Remember Fat Nick's...

Re: Dan’s Not the Man.

Whoever comes in I just hope they have a pair and are prepared to do what is necessary to move the club forward. Too many fringe players, hangers on who play a blinder for a few matches when contract is due then slip back into mediocrity afterwards. Conditioning of some players is brutal. Who the fe...

Re: Harlequins v Ulster Sat Jan 20 1pm KO TNT Sports 2

Geez remember when we had a coach that got us to the finals of the euro cup? Then he got turfed out as Ulster had aspirations to go further???? Cowboy, Kiss, Gibbes ( sort of ) then this. To be fair though, port coach or not some of the individual displays out there are pitiful. Do they think they’r...

Re: Ulster v Connacht

Those who consider Stockdale and Baloucoune are weak in defence fail to understand the back line defence which is not based on a man to man approach ie out half marks - out half inside centre marks inside centre etc It is based on two men marking on -- one to tackle ?? and one to contest the breakd...

Re: What would you do differently?

Getting rid of the dross mid contract wont save anything as they would have to be compensated so may as well let them stay to the end. Short contracts. We've seen it before player performance rising markedly just before end of contract - new contract - same old dross. There is a mentality problem. G...

Sexton, Curtis, moxham et al must be on peanuts to be getting these deals.

Re: Contract Situation

I wonder what the going rate is for the likes or Curtis, Moxham and Sexton?

Are Ulster paying top dollar for squad filler and fringe players?

Re: Ulster v La Rochelle - Saturday (Sunday?) Ravenhill (RDS?)

Do Ulster have

A coaching problem

A skills problem

An attitude problem

Guys just don’t look like their heads are in the game for some time now.
